copies: filter out copies from non-existent source later in _chain()

_changesetforwardcopies() repeatedly calls _chain(). That is very
expensive because _chain() does lookups in the manifest. I hope to
split up the function in two parts: 1) simple chaining, not
considering end points, and 2) filter out files that don't exist in
the end points (and ping-pong copies/renames).

This patches gets us closer to that by moving the check for
non-existent source later in the function. Now there are no more
checks for "src" and "dst" in the first loop; all the filtering of
invalid copies is done in the second loop. The code also looks much
more consistent now.

No measureable impact on `hg debugpathcopies 4.0 4.8`. That shouldn't
be surprising since the only case we're doing more checks now is in
case of chained copies/renames, which are quire rare in practice.

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).
