changelog: lazily parse description
Before, the description field was converted to a localstr at parse
time. With this patch, we store the raw description and convert to
a localstr when it is first accessed.
We see a revset speedup for revsets that don't access the description:
author(mpm)

0.914234
0.869085

0.994673
0.974027
author(mpm) or desc(bug) or date(2015) or extra(rebase_source)
3.656193
3.721032
3.643593
As you can see, most of these revsets are already faster than from
before this refactoring: we have already offset the performance
loss from the introduction of the new class representing parsed
changelog entries!
