[Bug 1721203] [NEW] systemd armhf autopkgtest test-copy fails in artful

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Public bug reported:

systemd armhf autopkgtest test-copy fails in artful

test-copy uses itself as the source to test copies. The test suite tries
to test cases where maximum requested copy is below and above the
internal buffer size. However, that fails when the maximum requested
copy bytes is more than the source binary... as started to be the case
with uber optimised artful toolchain on armhf, and after debug symbols
stripped. Specifically test-copy started to be less than 32000 bytes.

Awaiting improvement to the test suite upstream, simply keep test-copy
unstripped such that systemd-tests can be used in adt tests without
failures.
