cborutil: change buffering strategy

Profiling revealed that we were spending a lot of time on the
line that was concatenating the old buffer with the incoming data
when attempting to decode long byte strings, such as manifest
revisions.

Essentially, we were feeding N chunks of size len(X) << len(Y) into
decode() and continuously allocating a new, larger buffer to hold
the undecoded input. This created substantial memory churn and
slowed down execution.

Changing the code to aggregate pending chunks in a list until we
have enough data to fully decode the next atom makes things much
more efficient.

I don't have exact data, but I recall the old code spending >1s
on manifest fulltexts from the mozilla-unified repo. The new code
doesn't significantly appear in profile output.

Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D4854

Create a repository:

#if no-extraextensions
  $ hg config
  devel.all-warnings=true
  devel.default-date=0 0
  extensions.fsmonitor= (fsmonitor !)
  largefiles.usercache=$TESTTMP/.cache/largefiles
  lfs.usercache=$TESTTMP/.cache/lfs
  ui.slash=True
  ui.interactive=False
  ui.mergemarkers=detailed
  ui.promptecho=True
  web.address=localhost
  web\.ipv6=(?:True|False) (re)
  web.server-header=testing stub value
#endif

  $ hg init t
  $ cd t

Prepare a changeset:

  $ echo a > a
  $ hg add a

  $ hg status
  A a

Writes to stdio succeed and fail appropriately

#if devfull
  $ hg status 2>/dev/full
  A a

  $ hg status >/dev/full
  abort: No space left on device
  [255]
#endif

#if devfull
  $ hg status >/dev/full 2>&1
  [255]

  $ hg status ENOENT 2>/dev/full
  [255]
#endif

  $ hg commit -m test

This command is ancient:

  $ hg history
  changeset:   0:acb14030fe0a
  tag:         tip
  user:        test
  date:        Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 +0000
  summary:     test
  

Verify that updating to revision 0 via commands.update() works properly

  $ cat <<EOF > update_to_rev0.py
  > from mercurial import ui, hg, commands
  > myui = ui.ui.load()
  > repo = hg.repository(myui, path=b'.')
  > commands.update(myui, repo, rev=b"0")
  > EOF
  $ hg up null
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ "$PYTHON" ./update_to_rev0.py
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ hg identify -n
  0


Poke around at hashes:

  $ hg manifest --debug
  b789fdd96dc2f3bd229c1dd8eedf0fc60e2b68e3 644   a

  $ hg cat a
  a

Verify should succeed:

  $ hg verify
  checking changesets
  checking manifests
  crosschecking files in changesets and manifests
  checking files
  checked 1 changesets with 1 changes to 1 files

Repository root:

  $ hg root
  $TESTTMP/t
  $ hg log -l1 -T '{reporoot}\n'
  $TESTTMP/t

At the end...

  $ cd ..
