repoview: add visibilityexceptions as an optional argument to repo.filtered()
This will help us in having an API where we can pass the filtername and the
visibilityexceptions to get a new repo object.
Visibility exceptions are the revs which must be visible even they should in
theory belong to the hidden set. They are required as there has been desire to
have a functionality to access hidden changesets using certain commands without
passing --hidden. After this patch we can make those changesets visibility
exceptions so that we can access them without requiring a unfiltered repo.

$ hg init
$ echo a > a
$ hg ci -Ama
adding a
$ echo b > b
$ hg branch b
marked working directory as branch b
(branches are permanent and global, did you want a bookmark?)
$ hg ci -Amb
adding b
$ hg co -C 0
0 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved
Fast-forward:
$ hg merge b
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
(branch merge, don't forget to commit)
$ hg ci -Ammerge
Bogus fast-forward should fail:
$ hg merge b
abort: merging with a working directory ancestor has no effect

Even with strange revset (issue4465)
$ hg merge ::.
abort: merging with a working directory ancestor has no effect
