 summary:     merge: fast-forward merge with descendant

Before named branches, the invariants were:

a) "merges" always have two parents
b) p1 is not linearly related to p2

Adding named branches made (b) problematic, so the above patch was
introduced, which fixed (b) but broke (a).

After discussion, we decided that the invariants should be:

a) "merges" always have two parents
b) p1 is not linearly related to p2 OR p1 and p2 are on different branches

  $ hg init repo
  $ cd repo

  $ echo line 1 > foo
  $ hg ci -qAm 'add foo'

copy foo to bar and change both files
  $ hg cp foo bar
  $ echo line 2-1 >> foo
  $ echo line 2-2 >> bar
  $ hg ci -m 'cp foo bar; change both'

in another branch, change foo in a way that doesn't conflict with
the other changes
  $ hg up -qC 0
  $ echo line 0 > foo
  $ hg cat foo >> foo
  $ hg ci -m 'change foo'
  created new head

we get conflicts that shouldn't be there
