sparse: consolidate common code for writing sparse config In 3 functions we were writing the sparse config and updating the working directory. In two of them we had a transaction-like process for restoring the sparse config in case of wdir update fail. Because the pattern is common, we've already made mistakes, and the complexity will increase in the near future, let's consolidate the code into a reusable function. As part of this refactor, we end up reading the "sparse" file twice when updating it. This is a bit sub-optimal. But I don't think it is worth the code complexity to pass around the variables to avoid the redundancy. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D109

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

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).
