[PATCH v8 15/29] merge-recursive: make !o->detect_rename codepath more obvious

[Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>]

Previously, if !o->detect_rename then get_renames() would return an
empty string_list, and then process_renames() would have nothing to
iterate over.  It seems more straightforward to simply avoid calling
either function in that case.
