copies: make _backwardrenames() filter out copies by destination

As shown by the test case, _backwardrenames() doesn't filter by the
matcher. It doesn't show up in `hg status --copies` because that only
prints files changed between the two commits. I wouldn't be surprised
if some other command that replies on pathcopies() was broken before
this patch, but I haven't bothered to check other commands.

This library provides encoding and decoding for the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR)
(`RFC 7049`_) serialization format.

There exists another Python CBOR implementation (cbor) which is faster on CPython due to its C
extensions. On PyPy, cbor2 and cbor are almost identical in performance. The other implementation
also lacks documentation and a comprehensive test suite, does not support most standard extension
tags and is known to crash (segfault) when passed a cyclic structure (say, a list containing
itself).
