Add a simple test where a removed file is similar to two different added
files; one of them has the same basename, and the other has a slightly
higher content similarity.  Without break detection, filename similarity
of 100% trumps content similarity for pairing up related files.  For
any filename similarity less than 100%, the opposite is true -- content
similarity is all that matters.  Add a testcase that documents this.

Subsequent commits will add a new rule that includes an inbetween state,
where a mixture of filename similarity and content similarity are
weighed, and which will change the outcome of this testcase.
