df: avoid stat() for dummy file systems with -l

When systemd is configured to automount a remote file system - see
'man systemd.automount(5)', then the mount point is initially
mounted by systemd with the file system type "autofs".
When the resource is used later on, then the wanted file system is
mounted over that mount point on demand.
'df -l' triggered systemd to mount the file system because it called
stat() on the mount point.
Instead of single-casing "autofs" targets, we can avoid stat()ing
all dummy file systems (which includes "autofs"), because those are
skipped later on in get_dev() anyway.

*src/df.c (filter_mount_list): Also skip dummy file systems unless
the -a option or a specific target are given.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

specifying -x nfs no longer hangs with problematic nfs mounts.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.21]
df no longer interacts with dummy file system types, so for example
no longer hangs with problematic nfs mounted via system.automount(5).
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.21]
`groups inva:lid root` no longer exits immediately upon failure.
Now, it prints a diagnostic or a line to stdout for each argument.
