rebase: use matcher to optimize manifestmerge

The old merge code would call manifestmerge and calculate the complete diff
between the source to the destination. In many cases, like rebase, the vast
majority of differences between the source and destination are irrelevant
because they are differences between the destination and the common ancestor
only, and therefore don't affect the merge. Since most actions are 'keep', all
the effort to compute them is wasted.

Instead, let's compute the difference between the source and the common ancestor
and only perform the diff of those files against the merge destination. When
using treemanifest, this lets us avoid loading almost the entire tree when
rebasing from a very old ancestor. This speeds up rebase of an old stack of 27
commits by 20x.

In mozilla-central, without treemanifest, when rebasing a commit from
default~100000 to default, this speeds up the manifestmerge step from 2.6s to
1.2s.  However, the additional diff adds an overhead to all manifestmerge calls,
especially for flat manifests. When rebasing a commit from default~1 to default
it appears to add 100ms in mozilla-central. While we could put this optimization
behind a flag, I think the fact that it makes merge O(number of changes being
applied) instead of O(number of changes between X and Y) justifies it.

====================================
Testing head checking code: Case A-4
====================================

Mercurial checks for the introduction of new heads on push. Evolution comes
into play to detect if existing branches on the server are being replaced by
some of the new one we push.

This case is part of a series of tests checking this behavior.

Category A: simple case involving a branch being superceeded by another.
TestCase 4: New changeset as children of the successor

.. old-state:
..
.. * 1-changeset branch
..
.. new-state:
..
.. * 2-changeset branch, first is a successor, but head is new
..
.. expected-result:
..
.. * push allowed

Test setup
----------

  $ mkdir A4
  $ cd A4
  $ setuprepos
  creating basic server and client repo
  updating to branch default
  2 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ cd client
  $ hg up 0
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ mkcommit A1
  created new head
  $ hg debugobsolete `getid "desc(A0)" ` `getid "desc(A1)"`
  $ mkcommit B0
  $ hg log -G --hidden
