localrepo: handle rename with hardlinks properly
In "aftertrans", we rename "journal.*" to "undo.*". We expect "journal.*"
files to disappear after renaming.
However, if "journal.foo" and "undo.foo" refer to a same file (hardlink),
rename may be a no-op, leaving both files on disk, according to Linux
manpage [1]:
If oldpath and newpath are existing hard links referring to the same
file, then rename() does nothing, and returns a suc‐ cess status.
The POSIX specification [2] is not very clear about what to do.
To be safe, remove "undo.*" before the rename so "journal.*" cannot be left
on disk.
