From: Tobias Boesch <tobias.boesch@xxxxxxxxx>
If a file is renamed between commits and an external diff is started
through gitk on the original or the renamed file name,
gitk is unable to open the renamed file in the external diff editor.
It fails to fetch the renamed file from git, because it fetches it
using its original path in contrast to using the renamed path of the
file.
Detect the rename and open the external diff with the original and
the renamed file instead of no file (fetch the renamed file path and
name from git) no matter if the original or the renamed file is
selected in gitk.
Since moved or renamed file are handled the same way do this also
for moved files.

gitk: add external diff file rename detection
Changes since v1:
* Commit message ident
* Commit message line length
Changes since v2:
* Removed option for rename detection (Adding GUI options seems to be
not desired - which is understandable)
* Rebased on current master of git-for-windows
* Renamed variables for a better understanding
* Made rename detection also work when the renamed file is selected in
gitk
Changes since v3:
* Changed message to use present tense, removed bullet points and
described changes in imperative mood
Changes sine v4:
* Use a git command to gather the changed file paths rather than
parsing the text from the diff window panel for efficiency and to
avoid regex containing the filename as a variable.
* Change != to ne in string comparison
* removed extra set of parentheses around &&
* shorter variable names
Changes sine v5:
* Include filename in rename check. Find only the file and its renamed
version that is selected in the GUI.
* Escape special characters in the filename to prevent that they are
intepreted as part of a regular expression
