When "cp -i --update old new" would do nothing because "new" is
newer than "old", cp would nonetheless prompt for whether it is
ok to overwrite "new". Then, regardless of the response (because
of the --update option), cp would do nothing.
The following patch eliminates the unnecessary prompt in that case.
