Issue #3623, foreign-repo merge loses props on added file

Hi Mike.

I reviewed r939375,r939376 proposed for back-port to 1.6.x, to fix issue
#3623 "Files added via merge from foreign repositories lose properties"
<http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3623>.

The fix looks fine and works properly, and I'll approve it.

Just a small concern about r939375 which extends the existing test
function (merge_tests 88 on 1.6.x, merge_tests 72 on current trunk). It
looks like it unintentionally removes a check. See the "-" line in the
diff below?

Extend a test to address the concerns of issue #3623.

* subversion/tests/cmdline/merge_tests.py
  (foreign_repos): Extend this test a bit to really verify that what
    was merged from a foreign repos, and committed, is *really* what we
    expected.

]]]

Was that intended?

While I'm there, I would suggest that when we test a pair of files (or
dirs), we should test one with props and one without, rather than both
with props. So, instead of expected_disk containing:

    'Q' : Item(props={'foo':'bar'}),
    'A/D/G/Z' : Item(props={'foo':'bar'}),
    'A/D/G/Z/zeta' : Item(contents=zeta_contents,props={'foo':'bar'}),
    'A/C/fred' : Item(contents=fred_contents,props={'foo':'bar'}),

it would contain

    'Q' : Item(),
    'A/D/G/Z' : Item(props={'foo':'bar'}),
    'A/D/G/Z/zeta' : Item(contents=zeta_contents),
    'A/C/fred' : Item(contents=fred_contents,props={'foo':'bar'}),

If that all sounds OK, I'll re-instate the "-" line above and remove the
props from one file and one dir, like this, in the trunk version of the
test. I don't think we need to back-port these two tweaks.

(I tested 1.6.x locally with those tweaks and it passed.)
