Hi,

The new function is similar to "rename-file", but it automatically opens
the file once it's renamed (or throws a relevant error).

I'm not sure if this addition is necessary, but I've had it for so many
years that I thought it might be useful to have it in Emacs by
default. I'm also not sure if it's in the correct position within
lisp/files.el. In any case, I'm submitting this patch for consideration.
