revlog: optimize _chunkraw when startrev==endrev

In many cases, _chunkraw() is called with startrev==endrev. When
this is true, we can avoid an extra index lookup and some other
minor operations.

On the mozilla-unified repo, `hg perfrevlogchunks -c` says this
has the following impact:

! read w/ reused fd
! wall 0.371846 comb 0.370000 user 0.350000 sys 0.020000 (best of 27)
! wall 0.337930 comb 0.330000 user 0.300000 sys 0.030000 (best of 30)

! read batch w/ reused fd
! wall 0.014952 comb 0.020000 user 0.000000 sys 0.020000 (best of 197)
! wall 0.014866 comb 0.010000 user 0.000000 sys 0.010000 (best of 196)

So, we've gone from ~25x slower than batch to ~22.5x slower.

At this point, there's probably not much else we can do except
implement an optimized function in the index itself, including in C.
