revlog: addgroup checks if incoming deltas add censored revs, sets flag bit

A censored revision stored in a revlog should have the censored revlog index
flag bit set. This implies we must know if a revision is censored before we
add it to the revlog. When adding revisions from exchanged deltas, we would
prefer to determine this flag without decoding every single full text.

This change introduces a heuristic based on assumptions around the Mercurial
delta format and filelog metadata. Since deltas which produce a censored
revision must be full-replacement deltas, we can read the delta's first bytes
to check the filelog metadata. Since "censored" is the alphabetically first
filelog metadata key, censored filelog revisions have a well-known prefix we
can look for.

  $ hg init
  $ echo This is file a1 > a
  $ hg add a
  $ hg commit -m "commit #0"
  $ echo This is file b1 > b
  $ hg add b
  $ hg commit -m "commit #1"
  $ hg update 0
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ echo This is file c1 > c
  $ hg add c
  $ hg commit -m "commit #2"
  created new head
  $ hg merge 1
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ rm b
  $ echo This is file c22 > c

Test hg behaves when committing with a missing file added by a merge

  $ hg commit -m "commit #3"
  abort: cannot commit merge with missing files
