revlog: move the nodemap into the index object (for pure)

This make the pure code closer to the C extension one. The ultimate goal is to
merge the two into a single object and offer a unified API. This changeset
focus on gathering the data on the same object.

For now the code for `revlogoldindex` and `BaseIndexObject` index object are
quite similar. However, there will be larger divergence later on, so I don't
think is worth doing a base case.

This work is part of a refactoring to unify the revlog index and the nodemap.
This unification prepare the use of a persistent nodemap.

== New Features ==

 * The amend extension supports the `--currentuser` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--close-branch` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--secret` argument.

 * The uncommit extension supports the `rewrite.update-timestamp` config option.

== New Experimental Features ==


== Bug Fixes  ==


== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==

 * A shell that supports `$(command)`` syntax for command substitution is now
   required for running the test suite. The test runner normally uses
   `sh`, so if that is a shell that doesn't support `$(command)` syntax,
   you can override it by setting `$HGTEST_SHELL` or by passing it to
   `run-tests.py --shell <shell>`.

 * The (experimental) narrow extension's wire protocol changed. If
   you're using it, you'll need to make sure to upgrade server and
   client at the same time.

== Internal API Changes ==
