obsolete: rename `allmarkers` to `getmarkers`

This function is going to gain a "nodes" argument to filter the markers to the
ones relevant to <nodes> only.

    it is stored on disk when needed. Two file are used, one with an old

    format can store new kind of field.

    Current new format is a list of arbitrary record of the form:

        [type][length][content]

    Type is a single character, length is a 4 bytes integer, content is an
    arbitrary suites of bytes of length `length`.

    Type should be a letter. Capital letter are mandatory record, Mercurial
    should abort if they are unknown. lower case record can be safely ignored.

    O: the node of the "other" part of the merge (hexified version)
