Do not copy up when volume is not empty

When Docker performs a copy up, it first verifies that the volume
being copied into is empty; thus, for volumes that have been
modified elsewhere (e.g. manually copying into then), the copy up
will not be performed at all. Duplicate this behavior in Podman
by checking if the volume is empty before copying.

Furthermore, move setting copyup to false further up. This will
prevent a potential race where copy up could happen more than
once if Podman was killed after some files had been copied but
before the DB was updated.

This resolves CVE-2020-1726.
