convert: keep branch switching merges with ancestors (issue3340)

When running convert with a filemap, merge parents which are ancestors
of other parents are ignored. This is hardly a problem when parents
belong to the same branch, but the result could be confusing when named
branches are involved. With:

  -o-a1-a2-a3...     <- A
    \           \
     b1-b2-b3...-m-  <- B

If all b* revisions are discarded, it is useful to preserve 'm' even if
it is empty after filtering to record the branch switch.

This patch makes filemap preserve "ancestor parents" if there is no
"non-ancestor parent" on the same branch than the merge revision.

Remarks:
- I am not completely convinced by the reasons given above and those
  detailed by Matt in this thread:

http://selenic.com/pipermail/mercurial-devel/2012-May/040627.html

  The properties we try to preserve are not clearly defined. That said,
  I know this patch already helped someone on IRC and the tests output
  look reasonable.

- This is a new version of the original "convert: filemap must preserve
  fast-forward merges" patch. It has exactly the same output for 2
  parents merges, the additional complexity is here to handle more than
  two parents.

Add a merge with one parent in the same branch

  $ echo a >> a
  $ hg ci -qAm changea
  $ hg up -qC 0
  $ hg branch branch0
  marked working directory as branch branch0
  (branches are permanent and global, did you want a bookmark?)
  $ echo b > b
  $ hg ci -qAm addb
  $ hg up -qC
  $ hg merge default

Miss perl... sometimes

Add a merge with both parents and child in different branches

  $ cd source
  $ hg branch branch1
  marked working directory as branch branch1
  (branches are permanent and global, did you want a bookmark?)
  $ echo a > file1
  $ hg ci -qAm c1
  $ hg up -qC mergeab
  $ hg branch branch2
  marked working directory as branch branch2
  (branches are permanent and global, did you want a bookmark?)
  $ echo a > file2
  $ hg ci -qAm c2
  $ hg merge branch1
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ hg branch branch3
  marked working directory as branch branch3
  (branches are permanent and global, did you want a bookmark?)
  $ hg ci -qAm c3
  $ cd ..
