But Richard has a good point -- we can punt to set-visited-file-name to
change the visited file name (and this also fixes changing the major
mode etc if we're changing the name from .c to .el or something).
So I've now adjusted your function to use `rename-file' and then call
`set-visited-file-name' and pushed to Emacs 29.
