hg mv old new equivalent to mv old new hg addremove

[Pierre-Yves David]

In you simple example they will be "the same" because the content of 
old/new did not change betwen the `mv` and the `hg addremove`. So the 
addremove will successfully detect the rename and record the copy 
information. However if you know that you are doing a move for `hg move` 
will be safer because it avoid the risk of `hg addremove` failing to 
pick up the rename (eg: because of content change) or have unintended 
side effect (because other file are in the repository)
