copies: choose target directory based on longest match

If one side of a merge renames `dir1/` to `dir2/` and the subdirectory
`dir1/subdir1/` to `dir2/subdir2/`, and the other side of the merge
adds a file in `dir1/subdir1/`, we should clearly move that into
`dir2/subdir2/`. We already detect the directories correctly before
this patch, but we iterate over them in arbitrary order. That results
in the new file sometimes ending up in `dir2/subdir1/` instead. This
patch fixes it by iterating over the source directories by visiting
subdirectories first. That's achieved by simply iterating over them in
reverse lexicographical order.

Without the fix, the test case still passes on Python 2 but fails on
Python 3. It depends on the iteration order of the dict. I did not
look into how it's built up and why it behaved differently before the
fix. I could probably have gotten it to fail on Python 2 as well by
choosing different directory names.

            #   only branchhead as there are no possible ancestors on
            #   the same branch.
            # - If a parent is on the same branch, a branchhead can
            #   only be an ancestor of that parent, if it is parent
            #   itself. Otherwise it would have been removed as ancestor
            #   of that parent before.
            # - Therefore, if all parents are on the same branch, they
            #   can just be removed from the branchhead set.
            # - If one parent is on the same branch and the other is not
            #   and there was exactly one branchhead known, the existing
            #   branchhead can only be an ancestor if it is the parent.
            #   Otherwise it would have been removed as ancestor of
            #   the parent before. The other parent therefore can't have
            #   a branchhead as ancestor.
            # - In all other cases, the parents on different branches
            #   could have a branchhead as ancestor. Those parents are
            #   kept in the "uncertain" set. If all branchheads are also

    This is a low level cache, independent of filtering.

    Branch names are stored in rbc-names in internal encoding separated by 0.
    rbc-names is append-only, and each branch name is only stored once and will
    thus have a unique index.

    The branch info for each revision is stored in rbc-revs as constant size
    records. The whole file is read into memory, but it is only 'parsed' on
    demand. The file is usually append-only but will be truncated if repo
    modification is detected.
    The record for each revision contains the first 4 bytes of the
    corresponding node hash, and the record is only used if it still matches.
    Even a completely trashed rbc-revs fill thus still give the right result
    while converging towards full recovery ... assuming no incorrectly matching
    node hashes.
    The record also contains 4 bytes where 31 bits contains the index of the
    branch and the last bit indicate that it is a branch close commit.
    The usage pattern for rbc-revs is thus somewhat similar to 00changelog.i
    and will grow with it but be 1/8th of its size.
