revbranchcache: write cache even during read operations

Previously we would only actually write the revbranchcache to disk if we were in
the middle of a write operation (like commit). Now we will also write it during
any read operation. The cache knows how to invalidate itself, so it shouldn't
become corrupt if multiple writers try at once (and the write-on-read
behavior/risk is the same as all our other caches).

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install:

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing:

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
