smartset: use native set operations as fast paths

For set operations like "&" and "-", where we know both basesets have their
sets ready, and the first set is sorted, use the native Python set
operations as a fast path.

Note: "+" is not optimized as that will break the ordering.

This leads to noticeable improvements on performance:

  revset                                | before | after | delta
  ----------------------------------------------------------------
  draft() & draft() & draft() & draft() |    776 |   477 | -39%
  draft() + draft() + draft() + draft() |   2849 |  2864 |
  draft() - draft() + draft() - draft() |    943 |   240 | -75%
  draft() - draft() - draft() - draft() |    557 |   197 | -64%

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install:

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing:

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
