copies: choose target directory based on longest match
If one side of a merge renames `dir1/` to `dir2/` and the subdirectory
`dir1/subdir1/` to `dir2/subdir2/`, and the other side of the merge
adds a file in `dir1/subdir1/`, we should clearly move that into
`dir2/subdir2/`. We already detect the directories correctly before
this patch, but we iterate over them in arbitrary order. That results
in the new file sometimes ending up in `dir2/subdir1/` instead. This
patch fixes it by iterating over the source directories by visiting
subdirectories first. That's achieved by simply iterating over them in
reverse lexicographical order.
Without the fix, the test case still passes on Python 2 but fails on
Python 3. It depends on the iteration order of the dict. I did not
look into how it's built up and why it behaved differently before the
fix. I could probably have gotten it to fail on Python 2 as well by
choosing different directory names.

Our full contribution guidelines are in our wiki, please see: https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit 273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
