merge: cache unknown dir checks (issue5716)

As mentioned in D1222, the recent pathconflicts change regresses update
performance in large repositories when many files are being updated.

To mitigate this, we introduce two caches of directories that have
already found to be either:

  - unknown directories, but which are not aliased by files and
    so don't need to be checked if they are files again; and

  - missing directores, which cannot cause path conflicts, and
    cannot contain a file that causes a path conflict.

When checking the paths of a file, testing against this caches means we can
skip tests that involve touching the filesystem.

  $ hg init repo
  $ cd repo

  $ touch a.html b.html c.py d.py

  $ cat > frontend.sparse << EOF
  > [include]
  > *.html
  > EOF

  $ hg -q commit -A -m initial

  $ echo 1 > a.html
  $ echo 1 > c.py
  $ hg commit -m 'commit 1'

Enable sparse profile

  $ cat .hg/requires
  dotencode
  fncache
  generaldelta
  revlogv1
  store

  $ hg debugsparse --config extensions.sparse= --enable-profile frontend.sparse
  $ ls
  a.html
  b.html

Requirement for sparse added when sparse is enabled

  $ cat .hg/requires
  dotencode
  exp-sparse
  fncache
  generaldelta
  revlogv1
  store

Client without sparse enabled reacts properly

  $ hg files
  abort: repository is using sparse feature but sparse is not enabled; enable the "sparse" extensions to access!
  [255]

Requirement for sparse is removed when sparse is disabled

  $ hg debugsparse --reset --config extensions.sparse=

  $ cat .hg/requires
  dotencode
  fncache
  generaldelta
  revlogv1
  store

And client without sparse can access

  $ hg files
  a.html
  b.html
  c.py
  d.py
  frontend.sparse
