ancestor: faster algorithm for difference of ancestor sets

One of the major reasons rebase is slow in large repositories is
the computation of the detach set: the set of ancestors of the
changesets to rebase not in the destination parent. This is currently
done via a revset that does two walks all the way to the root of
the DAG. Instead of doing that, to find ancestors of a set <revs>
not in another set <common> we walk up the tree in reverse revision
number order, maintaining sets of nodes visited from <revs>, <common>
or both.

For the common case where the sets are close both topologically and
in revision number (relative to repository size), this has been
found to speed up rebase by around 15-20%. When the nodes are farther
apart and the DAG is highly branching, it is harder to say which
would win.

Here's how long computing the detach set takes in a linear repository
with over 400000 changesets, rebasing near tip:

Rebasing across 4 changesets
Revset method: 2.2s
New algorithm: 0.00015s

Rebasing across 250 changesets
Revset method: 2.2s
New algorithm: 0.00069s

Rebasing across 10000 changesets
Revset method: 2.4s
New algorithm: 0.019s

Create extension that can disable exec checks:

  $ cat > noexec.py <<EOF
  > from mercurial import extensions, util
  > def setflags(orig, f, l, x):
  >     pass
  > def checkexec(orig, path):
  >     return False
  > def extsetup(ui):
  >     extensions.wrapfunction(util, 'setflags', setflags)
  >     extensions.wrapfunction(util, 'checkexec', checkexec)
  > EOF

Simulate a Windows merge:

  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/noexec.py merge --debug
    searching for copies back to rev 1
    unmatched files in local:

   a: update permissions -> e
  updating: a 1/1 files (100.00%)
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)

Simulate a Windows commit:

  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/noexec.py commit -m 'win: merge'
