Recommended update for coreutils

This update for coreutils provides the following fixes and enhancements:

* cp(1) could read from freed memory and could even make corrupt
  copies. This could happen with a very fragmented and sparse input
  file, on file systems supporting filemap extent scanning.
  (bnc#892862)
* Improve ls(1) efficiency on large directories by caching some system
  call error codes (ENOTSUP for example) and not calling them again for
  files in the same device. (bnc#886129)
