backout: provide linear backout as a default (without --merge option)

This changes backouts changeset to retain linear history, .e. it is committed
as a child of the working directory parent, not the reverted changeset
parent.

The default behavior was previously to just commit a reverted change as a
child of the backed out changeset - thus creating a new head. Most of
the time, you would use the --merge option, as it does not make sense to
keep this dangling head as is.
The previous behavior could be obtained by using 'hg update --clean .' after a
'hg backout --merge'.

The --merge option itself is not affected by this change. There is also
still an autocommit of the backout if a merge is not needed, i.e. in case
the backout is the parent of the working directory.

Previously we had (pwd = parent of the working directory):
                  pwd     older
backout           auto    merge
backout --merge   auto    commit

With the new linear approach:
                  pwd     older
backout           auto    commit
backout --merge   auto    commit

auto: commit done by the backout command
merge: backout also already committed but explicit merge and commit needed
commit: user need to commit the update/merge

b51a8138292a introduced a regression where we would mention in the
changelog executable files added by the second parent of a merge. Test
that that doesn't happen anymore

  $ "$TESTDIR/hghave" execbit || exit 80

  $ hg init repo
  $ cd repo
  $ echo foo > foo
  $ hg ci -qAm 'add foo'

  $ echo bar > bar
  $ chmod +x bar
  $ hg ci -qAm 'add bar'

manifest of p2:

  $ hg manifest
  bar
  foo

  $ hg up -qC 0
  $ echo >> foo
  $ hg ci -m 'change foo'
  created new head

manifest of p1:

  $ hg manifest
  foo

  $ hg merge
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ hg ci -m 'merge'

this should not mention bar:
