revlog: allow tuning of the chunk cache size (via format.chunkcachesize)

Running perfmoonwalk on the Mercurial repo (with almost 20,000 changesets) on
Mac OS X with an SSD, before this change:

$ hg --config format.chunkcachesize=1024 perfmoonwalk
! wall 2.022021 comb 2.030000 user 1.970000 sys 0.060000 (best of 5)

(16,154 cache hits, 3,840 misses.)

$ hg --config format.chunkcachesize=4096 perfmoonwalk
! wall 1.901006 comb 1.900000 user 1.880000 sys 0.020000 (best of 6)

(19,003 hits, 991 misses.)

$ hg --config format.chunkcachesize=16384 perfmoonwalk
! wall 1.802775 comb 1.800000 user 1.800000 sys 0.000000 (best of 6)

(19,746 hits, 248 misses.)

$ hg --config format.chunkcachesize=32768 perfmoonwalk

$ hg --config format.chunkcachesize=65536 perfmoonwalk
! wall 1.801350 comb 1.810000 user 1.800000 sys 0.010000 (best of 6)

(19,932 hits, 62 misses.)

$ hg --config format.chunkcachesize=131072 perfmoonwalk
! wall 1.805879 comb 1.820000 user 1.810000 sys 0.010000 (best of 6)

(19,963 hits, 31 misses.)

We may want to change the default size in the future based on testing and
user feedback.
