t6423: update directory rename detection tests with new rule

Browse Source 
While investigating the issues highlighted by the testcase in the
previous patch, I also found a shortcoming in the directory rename
detection rules.  Split testcase 6b into two to explain this issue
and update directory-rename-detection.txt to remove one of the previous
rules that I know believe to be detrimental.  Also, update the wording
around testcase 8e; while we are not modifying the results of that
testcase, we were previously unsure of the appropriate resolution of
that test and the new rule makes the previously chosen resolution for
that testcase a bit more solid.

source of a rename on either side of a merge.
c) Only apply implicit directory renames to directories if the other side

of history is the one doing the renaming.
