gitk: added external diff file rename detection

* If a file was renamed between commits and
    an external diff is started through gitk
    on the THE ORIGINAL FILE NAME (not the
    renamed one), gitk was unable to open
    the renamed file in the external diff
    editor.
    It failed to fetch the renamed file from
    git, because it fetched it with the original
    path in contrast to using the renamed path
*   gitk now detects the rename and opens the
    external diff with the original and the RENAMED
    file instead of no file (it is able to fetch
    the renamed file now from git with the renamed
    path/filename)
* Since git doesn't destinguish between move or
    rename this also works for moved files
* External diff detection and usage is optional
    and has to be enabled in gitk settings
* External rename detection ist marked
    EXPERIMENTAL in the settings and disabled
    by default
* Showing the renamed file doesn't work when THE
    RENAMED FILE is selected in gitk and an
    external diff ist started on that file,
    because the selected file is not renamed in
    that commit. It already IS the renamed file.
