convert: don't drop commits that are empty in the source when using --filemap I ran into this when using `hg lfconvert --to-normal` (which uses the filemap class internally), and saw that commits with nothing but a branch change were dropped. We could put in an option that only lfconvert uses internally. But silently dropping anything other than a commit where all changes were excluded seems unintended. For example, there's a message in mercurial_sink.putcommit() if it drops an empty commit. (And the reason that isn't kicking in here is because lfconvert isn't passing --filemap, so the self.filemapmode conditional there is always False.) The naive change of `return not files` broke test-convert-filemap.t, so this is a little more elaborate than needed for converting from largefiles.

Address commentary in manifest.excludedmanifestrevlog.add -
specifically we should improve the collaboration with core so that
add() never gets called on an excluded directory and we can improve
the stand-in to raise a ProgrammingError.

Reason more completely about rename-filtering logic in
narrowfilelog. There could be some surprises lurking there.

Formally document the narrowspec format. For bonus points, unify with the
server-specified narrowspec format.

narrowrepo.setnarrowpats() or narrowspec.save() need to make sure
they're holding the wlock.

The follinwg places do an unrestricted dirstate walk (including files outside the
narrowspec). Some of them should perhaps not do that.

 * perfwalk
 * sparse (but restricted to sparse config)
