rust-matchers: improve `Matcher` trait ergonomics

`VisitChildrenSet` has no need to own the set, this will save allocations.

The `file_set` return type change is motivated by both ergonomics and... being
able to compile code.
The `AlwaysMatcher` does not store a `file_set`, which requires it to return an
owned `HashSet`, which in turn would change our return type to `Cow<&HgPath>`
(lifetimes omitted). This is both un-ergonomic and troublesome for more
complex lifetime issues (especially with the upcoming `FileMatcher` in the
following patch).

    /// Assume matchers `['path:foo/bar', 'rootfilesin:qux']`, we would

    /// // matchers is applied to the entire matcher, we have to downgrade this
    /// // to `This` due to the (yet to be implemented in Rust) non-prefix
    /// // `RootFilesIn'-kind matcher being mixed in.

    /// file or a directory, so `visit_children_set('dir')` for most matchers
    /// will return `HashSet{ HgPath { "f" } }`, but if the matcher knows it's
    /// a file (like the yet to be implemented in Rust `ExactMatcher` does),
    /// it may return `VisitChildrenSet::This`.
    /// Do not rely on the return being a `HashSet` indicating that there are
    /// no files in this dir to investigate (or equivalently that if there are
    /// files to investigate in 'dir' that it will always return
    /// `VisitChildrenSet::This`).
