upgrade: implement partial upgrade for upgrading persistent-nodemap Upgrading repositories to use persistent nodemap should be fast and easy as it requires only two things: 1) Updating the requirements 2) Writing a persistent-nodemap on disk For both of the steps above, we don't need to edit existing revlogs. This patch makes upgrade only do the above mentioned two steps if we are only upgarding to use persistent-nodemap feature. Since `nodemap.persist_nodemap()` assumes that there exists a nodemap file for the given revlog if we are trying to call it, this patch adds `force` argument to create a file if does not exist which is true in our upgrade case. The test changes demonstrate that we no longer write nodemap files for manifest after upgrade which I think is desirable. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D9936

== New Features ==

 * The amend extension supports the `--currentuser` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--close-branch` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--secret` argument.

 * The uncommit extension supports the `rewrite.update-timestamp` config option.

== New Experimental Features ==


== Bug Fixes  ==


== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==

 * A shell that supports `$(command)`` syntax for command substitution is now
   required for running the test suite. The test runner normally uses
   `sh`, so if that is a shell that doesn't support `$(command)` syntax,
   you can override it by setting `$HGTEST_SHELL` or by passing it to
   `run-tests.py --shell <shell>`.

 * The (experimental) narrow extension's wire protocol changed. If
   you're using it, you'll need to make sure to upgrade server and
   client at the same time.

== Internal API Changes ==
