Subject: [PATCH] tail: fix support for -F with non seekable files

This was seen to be an issue when following a
symlink that was being updated to point to
different underlying devices.

* src/tail.c (recheck): Guard the lseek() call to only
be performed for regular files.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.

 * Noteworthy changes in release 9.0 (2021-09-24) [stable]

** Bug fixes
+  tail --follow=name works again with non seekable files.  Previously it
+  exited with an "Illegal seek" error when such a file was replaced.
+  [bug introduced in fileutils-4.1.6]
+
   cp, mv, and install now handle ENOENT failures across CIFS file systems,
   falling back from copy_file_range to a better supported standard copy.
   [issue introduced in coreutils-9.0]
