Issue #21775: shutil.copytree(): fix crash when copying to VFAT
An exception handler assumed that that OSError objects always have a 'winerror' attribute. That is not the case, so the exception handler itself raised AttributeError when run on Linux (and, presumably, any other non-Windows OS). Patch by Greg Ward.
