[Templates] another ttree patch

Currently, if there are any explicit files on @ARGV (versus just relying
on srcdir), ttree will internally call $template->process directly
bypassing all the processing that happens in the no-@ARGV case
via the function process_file():
- suffix mapping (my previous patch)
- mtime and accept checking
- permission preserving
- copy processing
(I discovered when I noticed that my patched ttree didn't do the
suffix processing when I had an explicit file on the command line.)
Here is how I've patched my local copy:
if (@ARGV) {
# explicitly process files specified on command lines
foreach my $file (@ARGV) {
process_file($file, $srcdir ? "$srcdir/$file" : $file);
# print " + $file\n" if $verbose;
# $template->process($file, $replace, $file)
# || print " ! ", $template->error(), "\n";
}
}
Note that this does change behavior; there may be people reliant on the
old behavior of not doing all of process_file's functionality.
