Hi,

In the _copyxattr() function from the shutil module, the function throw an exception as soon as the copy of an attribute is failing.

But setting the "security.selinux" xattr will likely fail if selinux is enforcing more.

If this function is supposed to behave like cp -a, failing to set the security.selinux xattr shouldn't be fatal
