merge_trees() did a variety of work, including:
* Calling get_unmerged() to get unmerged entries
* Calling record_df_conflict_files() with all unmerged entries to
do some work to ensure we could handle D/F conflicts correctly
* Calling get_renames() to check for renames.

An easily overlooked issue is that get_renames() can create more
unmerged entries and add them to the list, which have the possibility of
being involved in D/F conflicts. So the call to
record_df_conflict_files() should really be moved after all the rename
detection. I didn't come up with any testcases demonstrating any bugs
with the old ordering, but I suspect there were some for both normal
renames and for directory renames. Fix the ordering.
