sparse-revlog: only refine delta candidates in the sparse case (issue6006)

Starting with 5aef5afa8654, a valid delta parent might be "refined". This
allows repository using sparse-revlog to produce better delta chain by using
better intermediate snapshot base.

However, this refining step was performed in all cases, including for
repository not using sparse-revlog. This could produce a strange chain in the
general delta case and corrupted repository in the non-general delta case.

We now skip this step unless sparse-revlog is in use.

In issue 6006, Yuya Nishihara provided a test case using an external
repository, so we did not include it. Finding "laboratory" condition to
reproduce this case and implementing an efficient test reproducing it is a bit
tricky. We do not foresee to have the time to provide one by the release date.

Create 2 heads containing the same file, once as
a file, once as a link. Bundle was generated with:

# hg init t
# cd t
# echo a > a
# hg ci -qAm t0 -d '0 0'
# echo l > l
# hg ci -qAm t1 -d '1 0'
# hg up -C 0
# ln -s a l
# hg ci -qAm t2 -d '2 0'
# echo l2 > l2
# hg ci -qAm t3 -d '3 0'

  $ hg init t
  $ cd t
  $ hg -q unbundle "$TESTDIR/bundles/test-merge-symlinks.hg"
  $ hg up -C 3
  3 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved

Merge them and display *_ISLINK vars
