repair: do not compress partial bundle if we do not keep it on disk
A partial bundle is created to temporarily save revisions > rev but
not descending from the node to strip, to be able to restore the
changesets after stripping the changelog.
Since this bundle is not kept after the strip operation, and is not
user-visible, it is not necessary and should be faster to avoid
compression.

Mercurial supports several ways to specify individual revisions. A plain integer is treated as a revision number. Negative integers are treated as sequential offsets from the tip, with -1 denoting the tip, -2 denoting the revision prior to the tip, and so forth. A 40-digit hexadecimal string is treated as a unique revision identifier. A hexadecimal string less than 40 characters long is treated as a unique revision identifier and is referred to as a short-form identifier. A short-form identifier is only valid if it is the prefix of exactly one full-length identifier. Any other string is treated as a tag or branch name. A tag name is a symbolic name associated with a revision identifier. A branch name denotes the tipmost revision of that branch. Tag and branch names must not contain the ":" character. The reserved name "tip" is a special tag that always identifies the most recent revision. The reserved name "null" indicates the null revision. This is the revision of an empty repository, and the parent of revision 0. The reserved name "." indicates the working directory parent. If no working directory is checked out, it is equivalent to null. If an uncommitted merge is in progress, "." is the revision of the first parent.
