wireprotov2: unify file revision collection and linknode derivation

The old mechanism for choosing which file revisions to send in the
haveparents=True case was buggy in multiple ways - the most severe
of which being that file revisions were excluded when they shouldn't
have been.

This commit unifies the logic for deriving the filenodes that will
be sent by the "filesdata" command. We now consistently read files
data from manifests. The "haveparents" argument now controls whether
we iterate ctx.files() or use the full manifest to derive relevant
files.

The logic here is still woefully lacking to fully support shallow
clones. It will require an API break to fully address. This commit
should at least make the server APIs emit proper data, which is
strictly better than before.

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
