merge: demonstrate that directory renames can lose local file content

When a directory has been renamed on the local branch and a file has
been added in the old location on a remote branch, we move that new
file to the new location. Unfortunately, if there is already a file
there, we overwrite it with the contents from the remote branch. For
untracked local files, we should probably abort, and for tracked local
files, we should merge the contents. To start with, let's add a test
to demonstrate the breakage. Also note that while files merged in from
a remote branch are normally (and unintuitively) reported as modified,
these files are reported as added.

#require no-symlink

# The following script was used to create the bundle:
#
# hg init symlinks
# cd symlinks
# echo a > a
# mkdir d
# echo b > d/b
# ln -s a a.lnk
# ln -s d/b d/b.lnk
# hg ci -Am t
# hg bundle --base null ../test-no-symlinks.hg

Extract a symlink on a platform not supporting them

  $ hg init t
  $ cd t
  $ hg pull -q "$TESTDIR/bundles/test-no-symlinks.hg"
  $ hg update
  4 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ cat a.lnk && echo
  a
  $ cat d/b.lnk && echo
  d/b

Copy a symlink and move another

  $ hg copy a.lnk d/a2.lnk
  $ hg mv d/b.lnk b2.lnk
  $ hg ci -Am copy
  $ cat d/a2.lnk && echo
  a
  $ cat b2.lnk && echo
  d/b

Bundle and extract again

  $ hg bundle --base null ../symlinks.hg

  $ cd ..
  $ hg init t2
  $ cd t2
  $ hg pull ../symlinks.hg
