bundle2: implement generic part payload decoder

The previous commit extracted _payloadchunks() to a new derived class.
There was still a reference to this method in unbundlepart, making
unbundlepart unusable on its own.

This commit implements a generic version of a bundle2 part payload
decoder, without offset tracking. seekableunbundlepart._payloadchunks()
has been refactored to consume it, adding offset tracking like before.
We also implement unbundlepart._payloadchunks(), which is a thin
wrapper for it. Since we never instantiate unbundlepart directly,
this new method is not used. This will be changed in subsequent
commits.

The new implementation also inlines some simple code from unpackermixin
and adds some local variable to prevent extra function calls and
attribute lookups. `hg perfbundleread` on an uncompressed Firefox
bundle seems to show a minor win:

Function call overhead in Python strikes again!

Of course, bundle2 decoding CPU overhead is likely small compared to
decompression and changegroup application. But every little bit helps.
