backout: avoid update on simple case.

Before the changeset the backout process was:
1) go to <target>
2) revert to <target> parent
3) update back to changeset we came from

The two update steps can takes a very long time to move back and forth unrelated
file change between <target> and current working directory.

The new process is just merging current working directory with the parent of
<target> using <target> as ancestor. This give the very same result but skip
the two updates. On big repo with a lot of files and changes that save a lots of
time (x20 for one week window).

The "merge" version (hg backout --merge) is still done with upgrades. We could
imagine using in memory commit to speed it up but this is another fish.

In the merge below, the file "foo" has the same contents in both
parents, but if we look at the file-level history, we'll notice that
the version in p1 is an ancestor of the version in p2. This test makes
sure that we'll use the version from p2 in the manifest of the merge
revision.
