kheaders: Have cpio unconditionally replace files
For out-of-tree builds, this script invokes cpio twice to copy header files from the srctree and subsequently from the objtree. According to a comment in the script, there might be situations in which certain files already exist in the destination directory when header files are copied from the objtree: "The second CPIO can complain if files already exist which can happen with out of tree builds having stale headers in srctree. Just silence CPIO for now." GNU cpio might simply print a warning like "newer or same age version exists", but toybox cpio exits with a non-zero exit code unless the command line option "-u" is specified. To improve compatibility with toybox cpio, add the command line option "-u" to unconditionally replace existing files in the destination directory.
