localrepo: use dirstate savebackup instead of handling dirstate file manually
This is one step towards having dirstate manage its own storage. It will
be useful for the implementation of sql dirstate [1].
This introduced a small test change: now we always write the dirstate before
saving backup so in some cases where dirstate file didn't exist yet
savebackup can create it.

mq may keep a reference to the repository so __del__ will not be
called and .hg/journal.dirstate will not be deleted:
$ hg ci -m foo
error: pretxncommit.nocommits hook failed: no commits allowed
transaction abort!
rollback completed
abort: no commits allowed
