dirstate-v2: add check of parent/child nodes being related when writing This stems from a corruption seen in a private repository. We're not sure of the source of the corruption, and it's very possible that we're seeing compounded effects of multiple writes on a corrupted dirstate. Adding this check is not expensive in itself and large writes of the dirstate are not common. This change does not catch this problem at the root node, the next one will.

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
