scmutil: introduce binnode(ctx) as paired function with intrev(ctx)

It seemed silly to convert ctx.hex() back to binary to use node.hex/short(),
or to use [:12] instead of node.short() because ctx.node() could be None.

Eventually I want to change wctx.rev() and wctx.node() to return wdirrev and
wdirid respectively, but that's quite big API breakage and can't be achieved
without some compatibility wrappers.

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
