rsync xattr not copying the +F flag (casefold) #165

Rsync ignores the +F flag while copying flags using -avX options.

[ arab: ~ ]$ lsattr ~/.wine/drive_c/
--------------e--F---- /home/arab/.wine/drive_c/Program Files
--------------e--F---- /home/arab/.wine/drive_c/ejay
--------------e--F---- /home/arab/.wine/drive_c/ProgramData
--------------e--F---- /home/arab/.wine/drive_c/windows
--------------e--F---- /home/arab/.wine/drive_c/users
--------------e--F---- /home/arab/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)
rsync -avX /home/arab/.wine/. /home/arab/.wine2/.
[ arab: ~ ]$ lsattr /home/arab/.wine2/drive_c/
--------------e------- ./ProgramData
--------------e------- ./Program Files
--------------e------- ./windows
--------------e------- ./users
--------------e------- ./ejay
--------------e------- ./Program Files (x86)

Expected result: the flag +F should be copied aswell.

ext4 filesystem was modifed with: tune2fs -O casefold /dev/nvme0n1p4 which points to /home while it was unmounted

I'm having the same issue with the "i" flag (immutable). Are they copied at all?

By the way, these are not xattrs, but file attributes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_attribute).
