bug#11424: coreutils: split tests hang on /dev/zero on GNU/Hurd

[Paul Eggert]

Thanks, here's a quick cut at a patch to 'split' to fix the problem.
Also, the test cases also need to be adjusted, so as not to attempt to
split -n on a device.

I audited coreutils for other misuses of st_size and found some;
here are additional quick cuts at patches that look like they're needed.
I didn't attempt to look for missed optimizations; just errors.
