Following the addition of file lib/fts.in.h in gnulib, the coreutils CI
fails.

To reproduce the failure:

$ make sc_gitignore_missing
gitignore_missing
/lib/fts.h
maint.mk: Add above entries to .gitignore
make: *** [cfg.mk:813: sc_gitignore_missing] Error 1

The rule in cfg.mk apparently assumes that there will be a file lib/fts.h.
But no, that file is called lib/fts_.h, for historical reasons.
