transaction: allow running file generators after finalizers

Previously, transaction.close would run the file generators before running the
finalizers (see the list below for what is in each). Since file generators
contain the bookmarks and the dirstate, this meant we made the dirstate and
bookmarks visible to external readers before we actually wrote the commits into
the changelog, which could result in missing bookmarks and missing working copy
parents (especially on servers with high commit throughput, since pulls might
fail to see certain bookmarks in this situation).

By moving the changelog writing to be before the bookmark/dirstate writing, we
ensure the commits are present before they are referenced.

This implementation allows certain file generators to be after the finalizers.
We didn't want to move all of the generators, since it's important that things
like phases actually run before the finalizers (otherwise you could expose
commits as public when they really shouldn't be).

For reference, file generators currently consist of: bookmarks, dirstate, and
phases. Finalizers currently consist of: changelog, revbranchcache, and fncache.
