rust: normalize `_for_unchecked_rev` naming among revlogs and the index
This normalizes the naming scheme between the `Revlog`, `Changelog`, etc.
which is less suprising, though no real bugs could stem from this because of
the type signature mismatch.
The very high-level `Repo` object still uses an `UncheckedRevision` parameter
for its methods because that's what most callers will want.

* copytracing: fix a bug in an edge case in metadata.compute_all_files_changes
* rhg: ignore readonly FS error when saving dirstate
* merge: sort filemap only if requested by the caller
* windows: implement `util.cachestat` to fix numerous dirstate problems
* subrepo: propagate non-default path on outgoing
* import: fix erroneous comparison of str with bytes
* largefiles: fix check that ensures that --all-largefiles is only used locally
* profiling: improve 3.12 error message for calling lsprof twice
* profiling: use "stat" profiler to profile individual request
* module-policy: ignore empty module policy
* relnotes: skip the test if the source repository is not readable
* wireprototypes: fix exception handling code with a bad pytype suppression
* Many more type fixes and improvements
* Improvements to the test suite
= Mercurial 6.8.1 =
* Python 3.12: fix an issue between `threading` and `demandimport`
* rhg: expand user and environment variable in paths to ignore in config and
includes
* `win32mbcs` extension: fix an encoding issue
= Mercurial 6.8 =
As usual, a *lot* of patches don't make it to this list.
== New Features or performance improvements ==
* Phases have been reworked to improve their general performance
* revset: stop serializing node when using "%ln"
* phases: convert remote phase root to node while reading them
* phases: use revision number in new_heads
* phases: use revision number in analyze_remote_phases
* phases: stop using `repo.set` in `remotephasessummary`
* phases: move RemotePhasesSummary to revision number
* phases: use revision number in `_pushdiscoveryphase`
* phases: introduce a performant efficient way to access revision in a set
* phases: rework the logic of _pushdiscoveryphase to bound complexity
* The Rust working copy code is being used by more places now:
* matchers: support patternmatcher in rust
* dirstate: remove the python-side whitelist of allowed matchers
* stream-clone: disable gc for `_entries_walk` duration
* stream-clone: disable gc for the initial section for the v3 format
* postincoming: avoid computing branchhead if no report will be posted
* stream-clone: disable gc for the entry listing section for the v2 format
* perf: allow profiling of more than one run
* perf: run the gc before each run
* perf: start recording total time after warming
* perf: clear vfs audit_cache before each run
* outgoing: rework the handling of the `missingroots` case to be faster
* outgoing: add a simple fastpath when there is no common
* tags-cache: skip the filternode step if we are not going to use it
* tags-cache: directly operate on rev-num warming hgtagsfnodescache
* tags-cache: directly perform a monimal walk for hgtagsfnodescache warming
== New Experimental Features ==
* Introduce a new experimental branch cache "v3":
* branchcache: add more test for the logic around obsolescence and branch heads
* branchcache: skip entries that are topological heads in the on disk file
* branchcache: add a "pure topological head" fast path
* branchcache: allow to detect "pure topological case" for branchmap
== Bug Fixes ==
* rust: use `cpython` 0.7.2 crate to add support for Python 3.12
* perf-stream-locked-section: actually use v1 generation when requested
* perf-stream-locked-section: fix the call to the v3 generator
* perf-stream-locked-section: advertise the right version key in the help
* stream: in v3, skip the "size" fast path if the entries have some unknown size
* stream-clone: stop getting the file size of all file in v3
* streamclone: stop listing files for entries that have no volatile files
* perf-stream-consume: use the source repository config when applying
* bundle: do no check the changegroup version if no changegroup is included
* perf: create the temporary target next to the source in stream-consume
* bundlespec: fix the "streamv2" and "streamv3-exp" variant
* push: rework the computation of fallbackheads to be correct
* profiler: flush after writing the profiler output
* base-revsets: use an author that actually exercises a lot of changesets
* hgrc: search XDG_CONFIG_HOME on mac
* clonebundles: add missing newline to legacy response
* narrow: add a test for linkrev computation done during widen
* Multiple fixes to guard against mmap issues
* portability: fix build on Solaris-derived systemd
== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==
== Internal API Changes ==
== Miscellaneous ==
* obsolete: quote the feature name
