emitrevision: if we need to compute a delta on the fly, try p1 or p2 first

Falling back to `prev` does not yield any real value on modern storage and
result in pathological changes to be created on the other side. Doing a delta
against a parent will likely be smaller (helping the network) and will be safer
to apply on the client (helping future pulls by Triggering intermediate
snapshop where they will be needed by later deltas).

With rewrite.empty-successor=skip, b2 is skipped because it would become empty.

  $ hg rebase -s 2 -d 1 --config rewrite.empty-successor=skip --dry-run
  starting dry-run rebase; repository will not be changed
  rebasing 2:6e2aad5e0f3c tip "b2"
  note: not rebasing 2:6e2aad5e0f3c tip "b2", its destination already has all its changes
  dry-run rebase completed successfully; run without -n/--dry-run to perform this rebase

With rewrite.empty-successor=keep, b2 will be recreated although it became empty.

  $ hg rebase -s 2 -d 1 --config rewrite.empty-successor=keep
  rebasing 2:6e2aad5e0f3c tip "b2"
  note: created empty successor for 2:6e2aad5e0f3c tip "b2", its destination already has all its changes
