discovery: fix docstring of `outgoing` class

Also, introduce a more correct name `ancestorsof` for what was named
`missingheads` before. For now, we just forward `ancestorsof` to `missingheads`
until all users are changed.

There were some mistakes in the old docstring / name:

* `missingheads` (new name: `ancestorsof`) contains the revs whose ancestors
  are included in the outgoing operation. It may contain non-head revs and revs
  which are already on the remote, so the name "missingheads" is wrong in two
  ways.
* `missing` contains only ancestors of `missingheads`, so not *all nodes*
  present in local but not in remote.
* `common` might not contain all common revs, e.g. not some that are not an
  ancestor of `missingheads`.

It seems like the misleading name have fostered an actual bug (issue6372),
where `outgoing.missingheads` was used assuming that it contains the heads of
the missing changesets.

Testing that convert.hg.preserve-hash=true can be used to make hg
convert from hg repo to hg repo preserve hashes, even if the
computation of the files list in commits change slightly between hg
versions.

  $ cat <<'EOF' >> "$HGRCPATH"
  > [extensions]
  > convert =
  > EOF
  $ cat <<'EOF' > changefileslist.py
  > from mercurial import (changelog, extensions)
  > def wrap(orig, clog, manifest, files, *args, **kwargs):
  >   return orig(clog, manifest, [b"a"], *args, **kwargs)
  > def extsetup(ui):
  >   extensions.wrapfunction(changelog.changelog, 'add', wrap)
  > EOF

  $ hg init repo
  $ cd repo
  $ echo a > a; hg commit -qAm a
  $ echo b > a; hg commit -qAm b
  $ hg up -qr 0; echo c > c; hg commit -qAm c
  $ hg merge -qr 1
  $ hg commit -m_ --config extensions.x=../changefileslist.py
  $ hg log -r . -T '{node|short} {files|json}\n'
  c085bbe93d59 ["a"]

Now that we have a commit with a files list that's not what the
current hg version would create, check that convert either fixes it or
keeps it depending on config:

  $ hg convert -q . ../convert
  $ hg --cwd ../convert log -r tip -T '{node|short} {files|json}\n'
  b7c4d4bbacd3 []
  $ rm -rf ../convert

  $ hg convert -q . ../convert --config convert.hg.preserve-hash=true
  $ hg --cwd ../convert log -r tip -T '{node|short} {files|json}\n'
  c085bbe93d59 ["a"]
  $ rm -rf ../convert
