  MFC r182093: Ignore NO_OVERWRITE_NEWER if the current object is a directory.
  Before this, the often-recommended incantation
     find -d . | cpio -p <target>
  fails to properly carry through dir metadata because each
  file copy implicitly creates the parent dir, which cpio subsequently
  refuses to overwrite.  With this patch, the incantation works
  with or without the -d option to find because without it, there
  is no implicit dir creation, and with it, the subsequent dir
  restore will update the metadata on the dir.
