 File-level rename detection updates.

I'm curious again about your workflow and the meanings of your
messages.  Here, I'm surprised by the change in date; in [2] you
listed it as 2020-12-14.  Do you update the dates when you pull in new
versions of the patch series?

These record the committer dates, which is much closer to the date
the version of the patches were exposed to public testing for the
first time, and probably is more appropriate than the author date to
use to judge how long each topic has been "cooked".

Anyway, I'm not aware of any outstanding requests for this series; I
think it's ready to start merging down.  Are there issues you are
aware of that you want to see fixed?

Again, just getting overlooked and nobody bothered to ping the
topic; also I haven't had chance to give these patches serious
enough reading they deserve yet.

FWIW, I marked the topic to be merged to 'next' after giving this
series a scan and liking it.  I admit that I didn't give too much
tought to the last two steps, though.

Thanks.
