perfrevflogwrite: clear revlog cache between each write

We want to measure write time from a cold cache (similar to commit). So we
need to clear the cache to prevent computation from rev N-1 to interfere with
rev N.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
