pathcopies: give up any optimization based on `introrev`

Between 8a0136f69027 and d98fb3f42f33, we sped up the search for the
introduction revision during path copies. However, further checking show that
finding the introduction revision is still expensive and that we are better off
without it. So we simply drop it and only rely on the linkrev optimisation.

I ran `perfpathcopies` on 6989 pair of revision in the pypy
repository (`hg perfhelper-pathcopies`. The result is massively in favor of
dropping this condition. The result of the copy tracing are unchanged.

Attempt to use a smaller changes preserving linkrev usage were unsuccessful, it
can return wrong result. The following changesets broke test-mv-cp-st-diff.t

    -        if not f.isintroducedafter(limit):
    +        if limit >= 0 and f.linkrev() < limit:
                 return None

As one can see, the average case is not really impacted. However, the worth case
we get after this changeset are much better than the one we had before it. We
have 30 pairs where improvements are above 10 minutes.

This reflect in the combined time for all pairs
before: 26256s
after:   1300s (-95%)

If we remove these pathological 30 cases, we still see a significant improvements:
before:  1631s
after:   1245s (-24%)
