[plugin] add-from

I just created a simple plugin for my use, and maybe other people will
find it useful too.

I'm manually reconciling 2 bzr branches, because they were lossy
conversions from other systems. (It was a project which used both CVS &
Arch).

Anyway, I needed a way to copy files from one tree to the other, and I
really didn't want to have a new file-id.

So I wrote the plugin here:
http://bzr.arbash-meinel.com/plugins/add_from/

It is basically just a wrapper around 'bzr add', which when it tries to
add a new file, it will look in another branch for a file-id.

I suppose 'bzr add' could have also been modified with something like
'--file-ids-from'. But this is a quick hack-around.

It works for what I needed it for.
