I agree, and here's the patch for review in case I'm wrong in thinking this
would not be an API or ABI change.

[[[
Rename some API parameters for consistency. This does not constitute an API
or ABI change, as the parameters are only within a pointer-to-function type.

* subversion/include/svn_delta.h
   (svn_delta_editor_t): Rename add_file()'s 'copy_path' and 'copy_revision'
     parameters to 'copyfrom_path' and 'copyfrom_revision' to match its doc
     string and for consistency with add_dir() and many (but not all) functions
     that implement this interface.

Note that these parameters are also referenced in a more general comment
(earlier in the file) that assumes they are named the same in add_file() as in
add_dir().
