tests: add test for widening from an empty clone

Narrow clones that track no paths currently don't even include the
root manifest (which is the only manifest when using flat
manifests). That means that when we widen from such a clone, we need
to make sure that we send the root manifest (and other manifests if
using tree manifests). That currently works because we always resend
all manifest that match the new narrowspec. However, we're about to
stop resending manifests that the client already has and there's a
risk of this breaking then, so let's add a test.

Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5143

This directory is meant to cache artifacts useful for tests (such as bundle).

Those artifacts need to be cached because they are slow to regenerate on each
test but too large to be tracked within the repository. They are not expected
to change between each run and can be cached.

The `./scripts/` contains code to generate the artifact while the `cache`
directory contains resulting artifact.
