revlog: add config variable for limiting delta-chain length The current heuristic for deciding between storing delta and full texts is based on ratio of (sizeofdeltas)/(sizeoffulltext). In some cases (for example a manifest for ahuge repo) this approach can result in extremely long delta chains (~30,000) which are very slow to read. (In the case of a manifest ~500ms are added to every hg command because of that). This commit introduces "revlog.maxchainlength" configuration variable that will limit delta chain length.
