exchange: check actually missing revs for obsolete / unstable revs (issue6372)

The previous code was using `outgoing.ancestorsof`, which was originally called
`outgoing.missingheads` although not containing the missing heads. This
confusion was probably the reason why the buggy code was written.

The actually outgoing changesets are stored in `outgoing.missing`. By checking
all outgoing changesets, we avoid the problem and can show the list of all
obsolete or unstable changesets, which is more helpful for the user.
