libbb: use sendfile() to copy data between file descriptors
Busybox already uses sendfile in httpd. This patch proposes to use it
globally to copy data between file descriptors.
It speeds up the copying on slow systems a lot - below are the times needed
to copy a 450Mb file with and without this option enabled on a BeagleBone
Black:
sendfile:
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m8.170s
read/write 4k:
user 0m0.470s
sys 0m16.300s
function old new delta
