Certain invocations of "git apply --3way" will attempt threeway and fail due to missing objects, even though git is able to fall back on apply_fragments and apply the patch successfully with a return value of 0. To fix, return early from try_threeway() in the following cases:
When the patch is a rename and no lines have changed. In this case, "git diff" doesn't record the blob info, so 3way is neither possible nor necessary.
When the patch is an addition and there is no add/add conflict, i.e. direct_to_threeway is false. In this case, threeway will fail since the preimage is not in cache, but isn't necessary anyway since there is no conflict.
This fixes a few unecessary error prints when applying these kinds of patches with --3way.
It also fixes a reported issue where applying a concatenation of several git produced patches will fail when those patches involve a deletion followed by creation of the same file. Added a test for this case too.
