changelog: add a new method to get files modified by a changeset

This patch adds a new method "readfiles" to get the files modified by a
changeset. It extracts some logic from "read" to only return the files modified
by a changeset as efficiently as possible. This is used in the next patch to
speed up hg log <file|folder>

#!/usr/bin/env python

import errno, os, sys

for f in sys.argv[1:]:
    try:
        print f, '->', os.readlink(f)
    except OSError as err:
        if err.errno != errno.EINVAL:
            raise
        print f, 'not a symlink'

sys.exit(0)
