revlog: split the content verification of a node into a separate method This will be used by LFS to tune what is skipped. In the future, this could also be used by LFS to indicate which nodes tagged with `skipread` are simply in need of a blob fetch, so that they can be done in a batch later. (Currently, `skipread` also indicates censored data and errors.) Additionally, it could be used to cache the sha1 hash value for each blob so that large blobs don't need to be re-read and re-hashed if they are used by multiple nodes.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
