revert: add some inline comments

I spend some time understanding how this part of the revert code is
working. I'm adding some comments to help the code readability. I
expect most of them to disappear in a coming refactoring. But the
refactoring should be easier to follow with the comment.

Check whether size of generaldelta revlog is not bigger than its
regular equivalent. Test would fail if generaldelta was naive
implementation of parentdelta: third manifest revision would be fully
inserted due to big distance from its paren revision (zero).

  $ hg init repo
  $ cd repo
  $ echo foo > foo
  $ echo bar > bar
  $ hg commit -q -Am boo
  $ hg clone --pull . ../gdrepo -q --config format.generaldelta=yes
  $ for r in 1 2 3; do
  >   echo $r > foo
  >   hg commit -q -m $r
  >   hg up -q -r 0
  >   hg pull . -q -r $r -R ../gdrepo
  > done

  $ cd ..
  >>> import os
  >>> regsize = os.stat("repo/.hg/store/00manifest.i").st_size
  >>> gdsize = os.stat("gdrepo/.hg/store/00manifest.i").st_size
  >>> if regsize < gdsize:
  ...     print 'generaldata increased size of manifest'
