Pádraig Brady fd01fc8075 tail: ensure --follow=name unfollows renamed files ...

Require --retry to continue to track files upon rename.
We already unfollowed a file if it was renamed
to another file system (unlinked), so this makes the behavior
consistent if renaming to a file in the same file system.
I.e. --follow=name without --retry, means unfollow if the
name is unlinked or moved, so this change ensures that
behavior for all rename cases.
