subrepo: add shortid() method to subrepo classes
This method takes an "id" (e.g. a revision id) and returns a "short" version
(e.g. a short revision id).
This will be used on the next revision to fix a small bug in the way that the
text on the promptchoice shown when a subrepo diverges is generated.
