internal/poll: if copy_file_range returns 0, assume it failed
On current Linux kernels copy_file_range does not correctly handle files in certain special file systems, such as /proc. For those file systems it fails to copy any data and returns zero. This breaks Go's io.Copy for those files. Fix the problem by assuming that if copy_file_range returns 0 the first time it is called on a file, that that file is not supported. In that case fall back to just using read. This will force an extra system call when using io.Copy to copy a zero-sized normal file, but at least it will work correctly.
