filemerge: introduce class whose objects represent files not in a context

Most code is going to barf at the return values here (particularly from data
and size), so we restrict it to the filemerge code.

This is already somewhat supported via:

  ctx.filectx(f, fileid=nullid)

Indeed, for add/add conflicts (ancestor doesn't have the file) we use precisely
that. However, that is broken in subtle ways:
- The cmp() function in filectx returns False (identical) for such a filectx
  when compared to a zero-length file.
- size() returns 0 rather than some sort of value indicating that the file isn't
  present.
- data() returns '' rather than some sort of value indicating that the file isn't
  present.

Given the relatively niche use of such filectxes, this seems to be the simplest
way to fix all these issues.

# Helper script used for generating history and working copy files and content.
# The file's name corresponds to its history. The number of changesets can
# be specified on the command line. With 2 changesets, files with names like
# content1_content2_content1-untracked are generated. The first two filename
# segments describe the contents in the two changesets. The third segment
# ("content1-untracked") describes the state in the working copy, i.e.
# the file has content "content1" and is untracked (since it was previously
# tracked, it has been forgotten).
#
# This script generates the filenames and their content, but it's up to the
# caller to tell hg about the state.
#
# There are two subcommands:
#   filelist <numchangesets>
#   state <numchangesets> (<changeset>|wc)
#
# Typical usage:
#
# $ python $TESTDIR/generate-working-copy-states.py state 2 1
# $ hg addremove --similarity 0
# $ hg commit -m 'first'
#
# $ python $TESTDIR/generate-working-copy-states.py state 2 1
# $ hg addremove --similarity 0
# $ hg commit -m 'second'
#
# $ python $TESTDIR/generate-working-copy-states.py state 2 wc
# $ hg addremove --similarity 0
# $ hg forget *_*_*-untracked
# $ rm *_*_missing-*

# Generates pairs of (filename, contents), where 'contents' is a list
# describing the file's content at each revision (or in the working copy).
# At each revision, it is either None or the file's actual content. When not
# None, it may be either new content or the same content as an earlier
# revisions, so all of (modified,clean,added,removed) can be tested.
