patch: allow copy information to be passed in

patch: allow copy information to be passed in

When displaying patches from graphical tools where you can browse through
individual files, with diff being called separately on each, recomputing the
limits of file copy history can become rather expensive on large repositories.
Instead, we can compute it once and pass it in for subsequent calls.
