copy: to find copy source, walk parent of revision we're marking copies in As shown in the previous patch, `hg cp --after --at-rev . src dst` fails if `src` is not in `.`. It seems obvious that you should always walk the *parent* of the revision you're marking copies in, but that's not how it was done for the working copy, and I didn't think to change it when marking copies in a non-working-copy commit. This patch fixes that by walking the parent commit instead, but only if we're marking copies for a non-working-copy commit. We need to leave the working-copy code unchanged because it depends on the weird behavior of `workingctx.walk()`. With these changes, there's very little overlap between the working-copy version and the non-working-copy version of `walkpats()`, but I've refrained from cleaning that up on the stable branch.
