discovery: introduce a partialdiscovery object

This object will ultimately gather the data about common, undecided and
missing revs in a single place and deal with most graph related computations.

The goal is both to clarify the algorithm and to help provides a simple and
clear API that can be reimplemented in Rust.

For now, we only moved the `common` set in the object. In this commit, some
direct access to the "private" `disco._common` attribute persist. They have
not been removed yet because we won't need to expose a full API identical to
`incrementalmissingancestors` and it seems simpler to access the attribute
directly until the replacement is in place.

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
