log: add -L/--line-range option to follow file history by line range

We add an experimental -L/--line-range option to 'hg log' taking file patterns
along with a line range using the (new) FILE,FROMLINE-TOLINE syntax where FILE
may be a pattern (matching exactly one file). The resulting history is similar
to what the "followlines" revset except that, if --patch is specified,
only diff hunks within specified line range are shown.

Basically, this brings the CLI on par with what currently only exists in hgweb
through line selection in "file" and "annotate" views resulting in a file log
with filtered patch to only display followed line range.

The option may be specified multiple times and can be combined with --rev and
regular file patterns to further restrict revisions. Usage of this option
requires --follow; revisions are shown in descending order and renames are
followed. Only the --graph option is currently not supported.

The UI is the result of a consensus from review feedback at:

  https://www.mercurial-scm.org/pipermail/mercurial-devel/2017-October/106749.html


The implementation spreads between commands.log() and cmdutil module.
In commands.log(), the main loop may now use a "hunksfilter" factory (similar
to "filematcher") that, for a given "rev", produces a filtering function
for diff hunks for a given file context object.
The logic to build revisions from -L/--line-range options lives in
cmdutil.getloglinerangerevs() which produces "revs", "filematcher" and
"hunksfilter" information. Revisions obtained by following files' line range
are filtered if they do not match the revset specified by --rev option. If
regular FILE arguments are passed along with -L options, both filematchers are
combined into a new matcher.

.. feature::

   Add an experimental -L/--line-range FILE,FROMLINE-TOLINE option to 'hg log'
   command to follow the history of files by line range. In combination with
   -p/--patch option, only diff hunks within specified line range will be
   displayed. Feedback, especially on UX aspects, is welcome.

  $ add()
  > {
  >     echo $2 >> $1
  > }
  $ hg init t
  $ cd t

set up a boring main branch

  $ add a a
  $ hg add a
  $ mkdir x
  $ add x/x x
  $ hg add x/x
  $ hg ci -m0
  $ add a m1
  $ hg ci -m1
  $ add a m2
  $ add x/y y1
  $ hg add x/y
  $ hg ci -m2
  $ cd ..

  $ show()
  > {
  >     echo "# $2:"
  >     echo
  >     echo "% hg st -C $1"
  >     hg st -C $1
  >     echo
  >     echo "% hg diff --git $1"
  >     hg diff --git $1
  >     echo
  > }
  $ count=0

make a new branch and get diff/status output
$1 - first commit
$2 - second commit
$3 - working dir action

  $ tb()
  > {
  >     hg clone -q t t2 ; cd t2
  >     hg co -q -C 0
  > 
  >     echo % add a $count
  >     add a $count
  >     count=`expr $count + 1`
  >     echo % hg ci -m "t0"
  >     hg ci -m "t0"
  >     echo % $1
  >     $1
  >     echo % hg ci -m "t1"
  >     hg ci -m "t1"
  >     echo % $2
  >     $2
  >     echo % hg ci -m "t2"
  >     hg ci -m "t2"
  >     echo % $3
  >     $3
  >     echo
  >     show "" "working to parent"
  >     show "--rev 0" "working to root"
  >     show "--rev 2" "working to branch"
  >     show "--rev 0 --rev ." "root to parent"
  >     show "--rev . --rev 0" "parent to root"
  >     show "--rev 2 --rev ." "branch to parent"
  >     show "--rev . --rev 2" "parent to branch"
  >     echo
  >     cd ..
  >     rm -rf t2
  > }

Additional tricky linkrev case
------------------------------

If the first file revision after the diff base has a linkrev pointing to a
changeset on another branch with a revision lower that the diff base, we can
jump past the copy detection limit and fail to detect the rename.

  $ hg init diffstoplinkrev
  $ cd diffstoplinkrev

  $ touch f
  $ hg ci -Aqm 'empty f'

Make a simple change

  $ echo change > f
  $ hg ci -m 'change f'

Make a second branch, we use a named branch to create a simple commit
that does not touch f.

  $ hg up -qr 'desc(empty)'
  $ hg branch -q dev
  $ hg ci -Aqm dev

Graft the initial change, as f was untouched, we reuse the same entry and the
linkrev point to the older branch.

  $ hg graft -q 'desc(change)'

Make a rename because we want to track renames. It is also important that the
faulty linkrev is not the "start" commit to ensure the linkrev will be used.

  $ hg mv f renamed
  $ hg ci -m renamed

  $ hg log -G -T '{rev} {desc}'
  @  4 renamed
  |
  o  3 change f
  |
  o  2 dev
  |
  | o  1 change f
  |/
  o  0 empty f
  

The copy tracking should still reach rev 2 (branch creation).
accessing the parent of 4 (renamed) should not jump use to revision 1.
