Tweak copy-file, rename-file doc

Browse source 
* src/fileio.c (Fcopy_file, Frename_file): Tweak the recent change
slightly, as NEWNAME is treated as a directory name depending only
on the contents of the NEWNAME string, and independently of
whether NEWNAME names a directory (i.e., whether the directory
exists) (Bug#29362).
