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.

Create a repo and add some commits
$ hg init mm
$ cd mm
$ echo "Test content" > testfile1
$ hg add testfile1
$ hg commit -m "First commit" -u "Proper <commit@m.c>"
$ echo "Test content 2" > testfile2
$ hg add testfile2
$ hg commit -m "Second commit" -u "Commit Name 2 <commit2@m.c>"
$ echo "Test content 3" > testfile3
$ hg add testfile3
$ hg commit -m "Third commit" -u "Commit Name 3 <commit3@m.c>"
$ echo "Test content 4" > testfile4
$ hg add testfile4
$ hg commit -m "Fourth commit" -u "Commit Name 4 <commit4@m.c>"
Add a .mailmap file with each possible entry type plus comments
$ cat > .mailmap << EOF
> # Comment shouldn't break anything
> <proper@m.c> <commit@m.c> # Should update email only
> Proper Name 2 <commit2@m.c> # Should update name only
> Proper Name 3 <proper@m.c> <commit3@m.c> # Should update name, email due to email
> Proper Name 4 <proper@m.c> Commit Name 4 <commit4@m.c> # Should update name, email due to name, email
> EOF
$ hg add .mailmap
$ hg commit -m "Add mailmap file" -u "Testuser <test123@m.c>"
Output of commits should be normal without filter
$ hg log -T "{author}\n" -r "all()"
Proper <commit@m.c>
Commit Name 2 <commit2@m.c>
Commit Name 3 <commit3@m.c>
Commit Name 4 <commit4@m.c>
Testuser <test123@m.c>
Output of commits with filter shows their mailmap values
$ hg log -T "{mailmap(author)}\n" -r "all()"
Proper <proper@m.c>
Proper Name 2 <commit2@m.c>
Proper Name 3 <proper@m.c>
Proper Name 4 <proper@m.c>
Testuser <test123@m.c>
Add new mailmap entry for testuser
$ cat >> .mailmap << EOF
> <newmmentry@m.c> <test123@m.c>
> EOF
Output of commits with filter shows their updated mailmap values
$ hg log -T "{mailmap(author)}\n" -r "all()"
Proper <proper@m.c>
Proper Name 2 <commit2@m.c>
Proper Name 3 <proper@m.c>
Proper Name 4 <proper@m.c>
Testuser <newmmentry@m.c>
A commit with improperly formatted user field should not break the filter
$ echo "some more test content" > testfile1
$ hg commit -m "Commit with improper user field" -u "Improper user"
$ hg log -T "{mailmap(author)}\n" -r "all()"
Proper <proper@m.c>
Proper Name 2 <commit2@m.c>
Proper Name 3 <proper@m.c>
Proper Name 4 <proper@m.c>
Testuser <newmmentry@m.c>
Improper user
No TypeError beacause of invalid input
$ hg log -T '{mailmap(termwidth)}\n' -r0
