perf: define util.safehasattr forcibly for Mercurial earlier than 1.9.3

Before this patch, using util.safehasattr() prevents perf.py from
being loaded by Mercurial earlier than 1.9.3 (or 94b200a11cf7),
because util.safehasattr() isn't available in such Mercurial, even
though there are some code paths for Mercurial earlier than 1.9.3.

For example, setting "_prereadsize" attribute in perfindex() and
perfnodelookup() is effective only with Mercurial earlier than 1.8 (or
61c9bc3da402).

This patch is a preparation for using util.safehasattr() safely in
subsequent patches.

This patch defines util.safehasattr() forcibly without examining
whether it is available or not, because:

  - examining existence of "safehasattr" safely itself needs similar logic
  - safehasattr() is small enough to define locally

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install:

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing:

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
