How about extending patchfiles to specify the number of directory path elements
to strip from the patch, like patch's -p?
This would allow us to use upstream patches without modification if they are
generated with git, which prepends "a/" and "b/" to the paths.
The format could be
patchfiles foo.diff:2
which would be equivalent to "patch -p2 < foo.diff".
