rust: make `Revision` a newtype
This change is the one we've been building towards during this series.
The aim is to make `Revision` mean more than a simple integer, holding
the information that it is valid for a given revlog index.
While this still allows for programmer error, since creating a revision
directly and querying a different index with a "checked" revision are
still possible, the friction created by the newtype will hopefully make
us think twice about which type to use.
Enough of the Rust ecosystem relies on the newtype pattern to be
efficiently optimized away (even compiler in codegen testsĀ¹), so I'm not
worried about this being a fundamental problem.
