copying: when using M-6, copy the final line in the buffer just once

When using --nonewlines and the cursor has arrived at the end of the
final line, each press of M-6 would add another copy of that line to
the cutbuffer.  That is clearly not the right behavior.

Also, give feedback when a press of M-6 does not actually copy anything.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58088.

The bug was old -- it existed since before version 2.2.0.
