to ignore specified files informations when comparing.
The current strategy to disable comparison on file informations is to
flatten data structure so they return the same 0/NULL value on
comparison and be, in fact, ignored to determine if the files differ.
This patch preserve original information on copies. Comparison is still
made on flattened structures, but preserved structure are used when
showing file informations
Hm, I'm a bit dubious whether information that are ignored when
comparing should be shown -- after all, when not enabling some
attribute compared by default (e.g. --atime), that attribute is not
shown if the file differs between images.
I think it would be better to split this patch in two:
a) disabling comparison of some attributes (--no-compare-XXX), by just
flattening them
b) an extra parameter, or something else, to show not compared
attributes for files that differ

"len" in _list structs indicates the number of items in the list
itself, so I'd avoid resetting it to 0 otherwise this information is
lost.
Much better to check (no_)compare_xattrs in compare_stats.
Even better, if the xattrs comparison is off, then just avoid copying
xattrs_orig.

Just document each one separately, even if with a similar documentation
snippet; something like:
=item B<--no-compare-xattrs>
The default is to compare the extended attributes of files.
Using this flag ignores the extended attributes when comparing files.
Also, as before, place them sorted alphabetically among the other
options.
