revset: add origin() predicate

This predicate is used to find the original source of csets created by a graft,
transplant or rebase --keep.  If a copied cset is itself copied, only the
source of the original copy is selected.

    hg log -r origin()                # all src csets, anywhere
    hg log -r origin(branch(default)) # all srcs of copies on default

By following through different types of copy commands and only selecting the
original cset, the implementation differences between the copy commands are
hidden.  (A graft of a graft preserves the original source in its 'extra' map,
while transplant and rebase use the immediate source specified for the
command).

Given a repo with a cset S that is grafted to create G(S), which itself is
grafted to become G(G(S))

    o-S
   /
  o-o-G(S)
   \
    o-G(G(S))

    hg log -r origin( G(S) )      # { S }
    hg log -r origin( G(G(S)) )   # { S }, NOT { G(S) }

Even if the last graft were a transplant

    hg log -r origin( T(G(S)) )   # { S }

A rebase without --keep essentially strips the source, so providing the cset
that results to this predicate will yield an empty set.

Note that the convert extension does not currently update the 'extra' map in
its destination csets, and therefore copies made prior to the convert will be
unable to find their source.
