    cp(1): fix performance issue for large non-sparse file copies

    PR252358 reported a serious performance problem when
    copying a large non-sparse file on a UFS file system.
    This problem seems to have been caused by a large
    number of SEEK_HOLE operations, with one done
    for each copy_file_range(2) call.

    This patch modifies cp(1) to use a large (SSIZE_MAX)
    len argument, reducing the number of system calls
    and resolving the performance issue.

    While here, convert the type of the "rcount" from "int"
    to "ssize_t" so that it is consistent with that returned
    by both read(2) and copy_file_range(2).
