rust-index: use a `BitVec` instead of plain `Vec` for heads computation The `Vec` method uses one byte per revision, this uses 1 per 8 revisions, which improves our memory footprint. For large graphs (10+ millions), this can make a measurable difference server-side. I have seen no measurable impact on execution speed.

Our full contribution guidelines are in our wiki, please see:

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
