revert: do not reverse hunks in interactive when REV is not parent (issue5096)
And introduce a new "apply" operation verb for this case as suggested in
issue5096. This replaces the no longer used "revert" operation.
In interactive revert, when reverting to something else that the parent
revision, display an "apply this change" message with a diff that is not
reversed.
The rationale is that `hg revert -i -r REV` will show hunks of the diff from
the working directory to REV and prompt the user to select them for applying
(to working directory). This contradicts dcc56e10c23b in which it was
decided to have the "direction" of prompted hunks reversed. Later on
[1], there was a broad consensus (but no decision) towards the "as to
be applied direction". Now that --interactive is no longer experimental
(5910db5d1913), it's time to switch and thus we drop no longer used
"experimental.revertalternateinteractivemode" configuration option.

.. feature::
When interactive revert is run against a revision other than the working
directory parent, the diff shown is the diff to *apply* to the working directory,
rather than the diff to *discard* from the working copy. This is in line with
related user experiences with `git` and appears to be less confusing with
`ui.interface=curses`.
this structure seems to tickle a bug in bundle's search for
changesets, so first we have to recreate it

check that "hg outgoing" really does the right thing
sanity check of outgoing: expect revs 4 5 6 7 8
$ hg clone -r3 . ../repo2
adding changesets
adding manifests
adding file changes
added 4 changesets with 4 changes to 1 files
new changesets 6ae4cca4e39a:478f191e53f8
updating to branch default
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
this should (and does) report 5 outgoing revisions: 4 5 6 7 8
$ hg outgoing --template "{rev}\n" ../repo2

test bundle (destination repo): expect 5 revisions
this should bundle the same 5 revisions that outgoing reported, but it
actually bundles 7
$ hg bundle foo.bundle ../repo2
searching for changes
5 changesets found
test bundle (base revision): expect 5 revisions
this should (and does) give exactly the same result as bundle
with a destination repo... i.e. it's wrong too
$ hg bundle --base 3 foo.bundle
5 changesets found
$ cd ..
