Summary 0000158: libbb, export it and callable from c program.
Description Many unix system does not have CopyFile call.
But busybox has every features of this call.
move file, move files, copy files to directory.. and so on...

IMHO, if libbb is made as shared library,
many applications in embedded systems want to use libbb's this features.

for example,
bb_copyfile(const char *src, const char *dest, int mode);
bb_copyfiles(const char *src, const char *destdir, int mode);

and so on..

As result, /lib/libbb.so and /usr/bin/busybox, these two files will supports all busybox's features .....

Please understand that i prefer to revisit this one only after 1.1.0 is released.

As the interface exported by libbb will need to be accompanied by cleaning up, using and installing the respective includes, the abovementioned patch will need to be extended to clean up the libraries to some extent, which will take it's time.
