bugfixes:
  - copy - Fix copy modes when using remote_src=yes and src is a directory with trailing slash.
Fix copy module file perms with remote_src (#69993) When using 'remote_src: yes' and 'mode: preserve', the code handling the file modes has to be handled on the remote node because it's the one that has access to the source files. This means that the copy module itself must handle this, rather than the copy action plugin (which is where all that logic exists). The copy module handles this when we copy a single file over. But when it is a directory as the src parameter value, the mode of the files beneath it are not considered. Subdirectories are copied with shutil.copytree() which will preserve permissions automatically. Individual files are copied with shutil.copyfile() which does NOT preserve permissions. We need to add some calls to shutil.copymode() to correct that. Note: This always retains individial file permissions. Specifying a 'mode' other than 'preserve' when giving a source directory for the 'src' param does not make sense so will be ignored in that case only.
