PATCH: ls option for octal mode

[David Schweikert]

Hi,

I have made a patch for fileutils that I thought would be useful integrating
in the official version.

The patch adds the --numeric-mode (-M) option to ls that makes it list octal
modes instead of symbolic modes. I use often the octal notation for file modes
and I find it practical to have an output option for ls to display them.
I also removed an unneeded added space in the output (after the symbolic mode)
for systems that do not support ACLs.

I have updated the documentation, but not the po files...

Cheers,
David
