cp: avoid data-corrupting free-memory-read

NEWS entry:
    cp could read from freed memory and could even make corrupt copies.
    This could happen with a very fragmented and sparse input file,
    on GNU/Linux file systems supporting fiemap extent scanning.
    This bug also affects mv when it resorts to copying, and install.
    [bug introduced in coreutils-8.11]

* src/extent-scan.c (extent_scan_read): Reset our last_ei
    pointer whenever the parent buffer might have just been freed.
    * tests/cp/fiemap-extent-FMR.sh: New test.
    * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add it.
    * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
    Reported by Mike Gerth in http://bugs.gnu.org/12656, and with
    help from Alan Curry.  Bug introduced in commit v8.10-60-g18f5a85.
