simplemerge: stop merging file flags

As 384df4db6520 (merge: merge file flags together with file content,
2013-01-09) explains, we shouldn't do a 3-way merge of the
symlink. However, since 84614212ae39 (flags: actually merge flags in
simplemerge, 2020-05-16), we do that in
`simplemerge.simplemerge()`. What's more, the merging of the
executable flag there isn't actually necessary; it was made a no-op by
the very next commit, i.e. 4234c9af515d (flags: read flag from
dirstate/disk for workingcopyctx (issue5743), 2020-05-16).

I found the overall flag-merging code (not the bit in
`simplemerge.py`) very hard to follow, but I think I now finally
understand how it works. `mergestate.resolve()` calculates the merged
file flags and sets them on the local side of the merge (confusingly
by calling `_restore_backup()`). Then it calls
`filemerge.filemerge()`, which in turn calls
`simplemerge.simplemerge()` (if premerge is enabled). That means that
the flags on the local side `fcs.flags()` are already correct when the
flag-merging code in `simplemerge.simplemerge()` runs. Interestingly,
that code still works when the local side already has the merged
value, it just doesn't change the value. Here's a truth table to
explain why:

```
BLOMCAR
0000000
0011111
0101011
0111111
1000000
1010000
1100000
1111101
```

B: Base
L: Local
O: Other
M: Merged flags from `mergestate.resolve()`, i.e. what's called "local"
   when we get to `simplemerge.simplemerge()`
C: `commonflags` in `simplemerge.simplemerge()`, i.e. `M & O`
A: `addedflags` in `simplemerge.simplemerge()`, i.e. `(M ^ O) - B`
R: Re-merged flags `simplemerge.simplemerge()`, i.e. `C | A`

As you can see, the re-merged flags are always unchanged compared to
the initial merged flags (R equals M).

Therefore, this patch effectively backs out 84614212ae39. (I might
later refactor this code to have the flags explicitly passed in.)

`simplemerge.simplemerge()` is also called from
`contrib/simplemerge.py`, but that code never passes any flags.

Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11879

Issue746: renaming files brought by the second parent of a merge was
broken.

Create source repository:

  $ hg init t
  $ cd t
  $ echo a > a
  $ hg ci -Am a
  adding a
  $ cd ..

Fork source repository:

  $ hg clone t t2
  updating to branch default
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ cd t2
  $ echo b > b
  $ hg ci -Am b
  adding b

Update source repository:

  $ cd ../t
  $ echo a >> a
  $ hg ci -m a2

Merge repositories:

  $ hg pull ../t2
  pulling from ../t2
  searching for changes
  adding changesets
  adding manifests

  added 1 changesets with 1 changes to 1 files (+1 heads)
  new changesets d2ae7f538514
  1 local changesets published
  (run 'hg heads' to see heads, 'hg merge' to merge)

  $ hg merge
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)

  $ hg st
  M b

Rename b as c:

  $ hg mv b c
  $ hg st
  A c
  R b

Rename back c as b:

  $ hg mv c b
  $ hg st
  M b

  $ cd ..

Issue 1476: renaming a first parent file into another first parent
file while none of them belong to the second parent was broken

  $ hg init repo1476
  $ cd repo1476
  $ echo a > a
  $ hg ci -Am adda
  adding a
  $ echo b1 > b1
  $ echo b2 > b2
  $ hg ci -Am changea
  adding b1
  adding b2
  $ hg up -C 0
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 2 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ echo c1 > c1
  $ echo c2 > c2
  $ hg ci -Am addcandd
  adding c1
  adding c2
  created new head

Merge heads:

  $ hg merge
  2 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)

  $ hg mv -Af c1 c2

Commit issue 1476:

  $ hg ci -m merge

  $ hg log -r tip -C -v | grep copies
  copies:      c2 (c1)

  $ hg rollback
  repository tip rolled back to revision 2 (undo commit)
  working directory now based on revisions 2 and 1

  $ hg up -C .
  2 files updated, 0 files merged, 2 files removed, 0 files unresolved

Merge heads again:

  $ hg merge
  2 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)

  $ hg mv -Af b1 b2

Commit issue 1476 with a rename on the other side:

  $ hg ci -m merge

  $ hg log -r tip -C -v | grep copies
  copies:      b2 (b1)

Test marking/unmarking copies in merge commit

  $ hg copy --forget --at-rev . b2
  abort: cannot mark/unmark copy in merge commit
  [10]

  $ hg copy --after --at-rev . b1 b2
  abort: cannot mark/unmark copy in merge commit
  [10]

  $ cd ..
