find -ls should match the output of ls -dils. However there are some
circumstances where it doesn't:
* ACLs, see bug #40577
* Unicode, see bug #61640
I think differences of amount of horizontal white space are probably not
significant here (unless one of ls and find uses none). But other differences
are probably things we should eliminate.
There are some issues with the -ls feature which will need care in testing:
* dealing with unimportant whitespace differences
* cases where "ls -dils" differs between the platform's ls implementation and
the implementation in coreutils (presumably we should match coreutils, but the
issue is in testing).
