revlog: break up compression of large deltas

Python's zlib apparently makes an internal copy of strings passed to
compress(). To avoid this, compress strings 1M at a time, then join
them at the end if the result would be smaller than the original.

For initial commits of large but compressible files, this cuts peak
memory usage nearly in half.

#  3  4       3

#  1  2       1  2
#  \ /        \ /
#   0          0
#
# if the result of the merge of 1 and 2
# is the same in 3 and 4, no new manifest
# will be created and the manifest group
# will be empty during the pull
#
# (plus we test a failure where outgoing
# wrongly reported the number of csets)
