[PATCH] libfile: copy_file: Fix ftruncate called on device files

ftruncate may only be called on regular files. This became broken in
a5f73a6dcd. Revert to the previous behaviour and pass O_TRUNC to the
initial open() call instead of truncating it with ftruncate().
Also we can call ftruncate() to the final size also when the file
previously didn't exist.
Fixes: a5f73a6dcd ("libfile: copy_file: explicitly truncate to final size")
