commitctx: document the manifest writing function

Same spirit as for `_filecommit` lets document the input and output before
making any change or improvement.

This is part of a larger refactoring/cleanup of the commitctx code to clarify
and augment the logic gathering metadata useful for copy tracing. The current
code is a tad too long and entangled to make such update easy. We start with
easy and small cleanup.

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
