patch: fuzz more aggressively to match patch(1) behaviour
The previous code was assuming a default context of 3 lines. When fuzzing, it
would take this value in account to reduce the amount of removed line from
hunks top or bottom. For instance, if a hunk has only 2 lines of bottom
context, fuzzing with fuzz=1 would do nothing and with fuzz=2 it would remove
one of those lines. A hunk with one line of bottom context could not be fuzzed
at all. patch(1) has apparently no such restrictions and takes the fuzz level
at face value.
- test-import.t: fuzz/offset changes at the beginning of file are explained by
the new fuzzing behaviour and match patch(1) ones. Patching locations are
different but those of my patch(1) do not make a lot of sense right now
(patched output are the same)
- test-import-bypass.t: more agressive fuzzing makes a patching supposed to
fail because of context, succeed. Change the diff to avoid this.
- test-mq-merge.t: more agressive fuzzing would allow the merged patch to apply
with fuzz, but fortunately we disallow this behaviour. The new output is
kept.
I have not enough experience with patch(1) fuzzing to know whether aligning our
implementation on it is a good or bad idea. Until now, it has been the
implementation reference. For instance, "qpush" tolerates fuzz (test-mq-merge.t
runs the special case of pushing merge revisions where fuzzing is forbidden).
