test: extract some generic data and utility from test-rust-ancestor.py
We will reuse this for more tests related to revlog index. In pratice this
series of changesets add an index implementation provided from Rust and we want
to be able to test it.

Requirement for sparse added when sparse is enabled

Client without sparse enabled reacts properly
$ hg files
abort: repository is using sparse feature but sparse is not enabled; enable the "sparse" extensions to access!
[255]
Requirement for sparse is removed when sparse is disabled
$ hg debugsparse --reset --config extensions.sparse=
$ cat .hg/requires
dotencode
fncache
generaldelta
revlogv1
sparserevlog
store
testonly-simplestore (reposimplestore !)
And client without sparse can access
$ hg files
a.html
b.html
c.py
d.py
frontend.sparse
