manifest: skip fastdelta if the change is large

In large repos, the existing manifest fastdelta computation (which performs a
bisect on the raw manifest for every file that is changing), is excessively
slow. This patch makes fastdelta fallback to the normal string delta algorithm
if the number of changes is large.

On a large repo with a commit of 8000 files, this reduces the commit time by 7
seconds (fastdelta goes from 8 seconds to 1).

I tested this change by modifying the function to compare the old and the new
values and running the test suite. The only difference is that the pure
text-diff algorithm sometimes produces smaller (but functionaly identical)
deltatexts than the bisect algorithm.

    Such methods must implement a coroutine as follows:

    @batchable
    def sample(self, one, two=None):
        # Handle locally computable results first:
        if not one:
            yield "a local result", None
        # Build list of encoded arguments suitable for your wire protocol:
        encargs = [('one', encode(one),), ('two', encode(two),)]
        # Create future for injection of encoded result:
        encresref = future()
        # Return encoded arguments and future:
        yield encargs, encresref
        # Assuming the future to be filled with the result from the batched
        # request now. Decode it:
        yield decode(encresref.value)

    The decorator returns a function which wraps this coroutine as a plain
    method, but adds the original method as an attribute called "batchable",
    which is used by remotebatch to split the call into separate encoding and
    decoding phases.
