similar: compare between actual file contents for exact identity

Before this patch, similarity detection logic (for addremove and
automv) depends entirely on SHA-1 digesting. But this causes incorrect
rename detection, if:

  - removing file A and adding file B occur at same committing, and
  - SHA-1 hash values of file A and B are same

This may prevent security experts from managing sample files for
SHAttered issue in Mercurial repository, for example.

  https://shattered.it/

Hash collision itself isn't so serious for core repository
functionality of Mercurial, described by mpm as below, though.

  https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/mpm/SHA1

This patch compares between actual file contents after hash comparison
for exact identity.

Even after this patch, SHA-1 is still used, because it is reasonable
enough to quickly detect existence of "(almost) same" file.

  - replacing SHA-1 causes decreasing performance, and
  - replacement of it has ambiguity, yet

Getting content of removed file (= rfctx.data()) at each exact
comparison should be cheap enough, even though getting content of
added one costs much.
