tests: add 'f' tool for cross platform file operations in the tests

This tool is like the collection of tools found in a unix environment but are
cross platform and stable and suitable for our needs in the test suite.

The main reason it is "needed" now is for hexdump of revision branch cache to
keep an eye on how it changes and make sure the format is stable.

It is a very generic tool that can end up being used a lot in tests, so I gave
it very generic name.

fixbundle() {
    grep -v 'saving bundle' | grep -v 'saved backup' | \
        grep -v added | grep -v adding | \
        grep -v "unable to find 'e' for patching" | \
        grep -v "e: No such file or directory"
}
