Fix of issue #236
Description
This changes the behavior of ltfs_ordered_copy when xattr is not supported on the destination filesystem. Instead of failing the copy, it disables the -p flag and continues on without attempting to preserve attributes. Previously, users would be unable to copy to a non-ltfs filesystem that does not support xattr. Now, users can still perform the copy, but without the additional metadata added by -p.
Fixes #236
