osutil: use getdirentriesattr on OS X if possible

This is a significant win for large repositories on OS X, especially with a
cold cache. Unfortunately we need to keep the lstat-based implementation around
for two reasons:

- Not all filesystems support this call.
- There's an edge case in which it's best to fall back to avoid a retry loop.
  More about this in the comments.

The below tests are all performed on a Mac with an SSD running OS X 10.9, on a
repository with over 200k files. The results are best of 5 with simulated
best-effort conditions.

The gains with a hot cache are pretty impressive: 'hg status' goes from 5.18
seconds to 3.79 seconds.

However, a repository that large will probably already be using something like
hgwatchman [1], which helps much more (for this repo, 'hg status' with
hgwatchman is approximately 1 second). Where this really helps is when the
cache is cold [2]: hg status goes from 31.0 seconds to 9.66.

See http://lists.apple.com/archives/filesystem-dev/2014/Dec/msg00002.html for
some more discussion about this function.

This is based on a patch by Sean Farley <[e-mail]>.

[2] There appears to be no easy way to clear the file cache (aka "vnodes") on
OS X short of rebooting. purge(8) purportedly does that but in my testing had
little effect. The workaround I came up with was to assume that vnode eviction
was LRU, make sure the kern.maxvnodes sysctl is smaller than the size of the
repository, then make sure we'd always miss the cache by running 'hg status' in
another clone of the repository before running it in the test repository.

#require cvs112

This feature requires use of builtin cvsps!

  $ echo "[extensions]" >> $HGRCPATH
  $ echo "convert = " >> $HGRCPATH

create cvs repository with one project

  $ mkdir cvsrepo
  $ cd cvsrepo
  $ CVSROOT=`pwd`
  $ export CVSROOT
  $ CVS_OPTIONS=-f
  $ export CVS_OPTIONS
  $ cd ..
  $ rmdir cvsrepo
  $ cvscall()
  > {
  >     cvs -f "$@"
  > }

output of 'cvs ci' varies unpredictably, so just discard it

  $ cvsci()
  > {
  >     sleep 1
  >     cvs -f ci "$@" >/dev/null
  > }
  $ cvscall -d "$CVSROOT" init
  $ mkdir cvsrepo/proj
  $ cvscall -q co proj

create file1 on the trunk

  $ cd proj
  $ touch file1
  $ cvscall -Q add file1
  $ cvsci -m"add file1 on trunk" file1

create two branches

  $ cvscall -q tag -b v1_0
  T file1
  $ cvscall -q tag -b v1_1
  T file1

create file2 on branch v1_0

  $ cvscall -Q up -rv1_0
  $ touch file2
  $ cvscall -Q add file2
  $ cvsci -m"add file2" file2

create file3, file4 on branch v1_1

  $ cvscall -Q up -rv1_1
  $ touch file3
  $ touch file4
  $ cvscall -Q add file3 file4
  $ cvsci -m"add file3, file4 on branch v1_1" file3 file4

merge file2 from v1_0 to v1_1

  $ cvscall -Q up -jv1_0
  $ cvsci -m"MERGE from v1_0: add file2"
  cvs commit: Examining .

Step things up a notch: now we make the history really hairy, with
changes bouncing back and forth between trunk and v1_2 and merges
going both ways.  (I.e., try to model the real world.)
create branch v1_2

  $ cvscall -Q up -A
  $ cvscall -q tag -b v1_2
  T file1

create file5 on branch v1_2

  $ cvscall -Q up -rv1_2
  $ touch file5
  $ cvs -Q add file5
  $ cvsci -m"add file5 on v1_2"
  cvs commit: Examining .

create file6 on trunk post-v1_2

  $ cvscall -Q up -A
  $ touch file6
  $ cvscall -Q add file6
  $ cvsci -m"add file6 on trunk post-v1_2"
  cvs commit: Examining .

merge file5 from v1_2 to trunk

  $ cvscall -Q up -A
  $ cvscall -Q up -jv1_2 file5
  $ cvsci -m"MERGE from v1_2: add file5"
  cvs commit: Examining .

merge file6 from trunk to v1_2

  $ cvscall -Q up -rv1_2
  $ cvscall up -jHEAD file6
  U file6
  $ cvsci -m"MERGE from HEAD: add file6"
