largefiles: don't walk through all ignored files

Problem: 'hg status' with largefiles enabled would walk through all the files
that .hgignore said should be ignored. That made it slow if a lot of files were
.hgignored or the cache was cold.

It seems like there was a reason to this, but other improvements has rendered
this unnecessary.

Solution: .hgignore is now only ignored when that is requested (--ignore).

This is a minimal 'stable' change. There is room for other improvement.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
