repair: speed up stripping of many roots

repair.strip() expects a set of root revisions to strip. It then
builds the full set of descedants by walking the descandants of
each. It is rare that more than a few roots get passed in, but if that
happens, it will wastefully walk the changelog for each root. So let's
just walk it once.

I noticed this because the narrowhg extension was passing not only
roots, but all the commits to strip. When there were tens of thousands
of commits to strip, this resulted in quadratic behavior with that
extension.

# The test-repo is a live hg repository which may have evolution
# markers created, e.g. when a ~/.hgrc enabled evolution.
#
# Tests are run using a custom HGRCPATH, which do not
# enable evolution markers by default.
#
# If test-repo includes evolution markers, and we do not
# enable evolution markers, hg will occasionally complain
# when it notices them, which disrupts tests resulting in
# sporadic failures.
#
# Since we aren't performing any write operations on the
# test-repo, there's no harm in telling hg that we support
# evolution markers, which is what the following lines
# for the hgrc file do:
cat >> $HGRCPATH << EOF
[experimental]
evolution=createmarkers
EOF
