documentation: add some internals documentation about bid merge
This is an important algorithm that was only documented on the wiki so far.
Some update to the algorithm (and associated doc) is to expected in the future
since the bid merge algorithm is bug-ridden when it comes to file deletion comes
to play.

====================================
Testing head checking code: Case D-7
====================================
Mercurial checks for the introduction of new heads on push. Evolution comes
into play to detect if existing branches on the server are being replaced by
some of the new one we push.
This case is part of a series of tests checking this behavior.
Category D: remote head is "obs-affected" locally, but result is not part of the push
TestCase 7: single changesets, superseeded multiple time then pruned (on a new changeset unpushed) changeset
This is a partial push variation of B6
.. old-state:
..
.. * 1 changeset branch
..
.. new-state:

.. * old branch is rewritten onto another one,
.. * The rewriting it again rewritten on the root
.. * the new version is then pruned.

.. expected-result:
..
.. * push allowed
