Description

Motivation

If a module stream is marked as a default one, then nonmodular RPMs are allowed to depend on it.
If we copy the module without copying the module_defaults metadata, clients will not understand that it is special, and they will not be able to use that module to satisfy their dependencies, and the packages they provide will not be able to be installed normally through DNF as intended.

Solution

At copy time, always copy module_defaults if the stream specified in it is copied as well.
*How to merge module_defaults should be decided on this ticket before grooming
