largefiles: write .hg/largefiles/ files atomically Before, it was possible to create a .hg/largefiles/hash file with truncated content, i.e., content where SHA-1(content) != hash This breaks the fundamental invariant in largefiles that the file content for files in .hg/largefiles hash to the filename.
