dirstate-v2: Support appending to the same data file
For now we’re still writing the entire data every time, so appending is not
useful yet. Later we’ll have new nodes pointing to some existing data for
nodes and paths that haven’t changed.
The decision whether to append is pseudo-random in order to make tests exercise
both code paths. This will be replaced by a heuristic based on the amount
of unused existing data.

dirstate-v2: Rename Header to Root, move it to the end of the data file
Now that they don’t have to be at the start, a given data file may contain
multiple "roots". A docket only points to one of them, and previous ones
are left unused to allow allow append-only in-place writing to an existing
data file.
