revset: allow rev(-1) to indicate null revision (BC) This can simplify the conversion from numeric revision to string. Without it, we have to handle -1 specially because repo['-1'] != repo[-1]. The -1 revision is not officially documented, but this change makes sense assuming that "rev(%d)" exists for scripting or third-party tools.
