update: add a Rust fast-path when updating from null (and clean)

This case is easy to detect and we have all we need to generate a valid
working copy and dirstate entirely in Rust, which speeds things up
considerably:

On my machine updating a repo of ~300k files goes from 10.00s down to 4.2s,
all while consuming 50% less system time, with all caches hot.
Something to note is that further improvements will probably happen
with the upcoming `InnerRevlog` series that does smarter
mmap hanlding, especially for filelogs.

Here are benchmark numbers on a machine with only 4 cores (and no SMT enabled)

```

Put here definitions of blacklists for run-tests.py

Create a file per blacklist. Each file should list the names of tests that you
want to be skipped.
File names are meant to be used as targets for run-tests.py --blacklist
option.
Lines starting with # are ignored. White spaces are stripped.

e.g. if you create a blacklist/example file containing:
 test-hgrc
 # some comment
 test-help
then calling "run-tests.py --blacklist blacklists/example" will exclude
test-hgrc and test-help from the list of tests to run.
