amend: fix amend with copies in extras

If copy information is stored only in the commit extras and not in
filelogs, then they get lost on amend if the file wasn't also modified
in the working copy. That's because we create `filectx` object from
the old commit in those cases, and the `.copysource()` of such objects
read only from the filelog. This patch fixes it by always creating a
new `memfilectx` in these cases, passing the calculated copy
information to it.

== New Features ==

 * The amend extension supports the `--currentuser` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--close-branch` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--secret` argument.

 * The uncommit extension supports the `rewrite.update-timestamp` config option.

== New Experimental Features ==


== Bug Fixes  ==


== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==

 * A shell that supports `$(command)`` syntax for command substitution is now
   required for running the test suite. The test runner normally uses
   `sh`, so if that is a shell that doesn't support `$(command)` syntax,
   you can override it by setting `$HGTEST_SHELL` or by passing it to
   `run-tests.py --shell <shell>`.

 * The (experimental) narrow extension's wire protocol changed. If
   you're using it, you'll need to make sure to upgrade server and
   client at the same time.

== Internal API Changes ==
