perf: add --clear-revlog flag to branchmapload Having the changelog index already loaded when loading the branchmap can have a large impact on performance. Example runs (large private repository): hg perfbranchmapload -f base ! wall 0.116722 comb 0.120000 user 0.110000 sys 0.010000 (best of 59) hg perfbranchmapload -f base --clear-revlogs ! wall 0.258246 comb 0.230000 user 0.220000 sys 0.010000 (best of 31)

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

Running without installing::
