This patch fixes bug #376388
It ensure that .bazaar, .bazaar/bazaar.conf and .bzr.log when created
by bzr run under sudo, have the same usr/grp ownership as the containing
folder and not root.

copy_ownership(src, dst) function copies user and group ownership
from src to dst. copy_ownership does nothing on windows.

This function is used during creation of .bazaar, .bazaar/bazaar.conf
and .bzr.log.

.bzr.log location of /dev/null and NUL are ignored.

This was tested by creating a user 'sandbox' and running
'sudo bzr whoami a@b'. The latter creates the above files with
the correct ownership.

I am not sure what would be a good way to write a automated test case
for this. Any ideas/suggestion are welcome. I would be happy to
implement them.

Below is the log of the manual test run:

sandbox@parthm-laptop:~$ ls -la .bazaar .bzr.log .bazaar/bazaar.conf
ls: cannot access .bazaar: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access .bzr.log: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access .bazaar/bazaar.conf: No such file or directory

sandbox@parthm-laptop:~$ sudo /storage/parth/src/bzr.dev/2.0_376388_dot_bazaar_ownership/bzr whoami a@b
[sudo] password for sandbox:
