perf: add threading capability to perfbdiff

Since we are releasing the GIL during diffing, it is interesting to see how a
thread pool would perform on diffing. We add a new `--threads` argument to
commands. Synchronizing the thread pool is a bit complex because we want to be
able to reuse it from one run to another.

On my computer (i7 with 4 cores + hyperthreading), I get the following data for
about 12000 revisions:
threads wall        comb    wall gain   comb overhead
none    31.596715   31.59    0.00%       0.00%
1       31.621228   31.62   -0.08%       0.09%
2       16.406202   32.8    48.08%       3.83%
3       11.598334   34.76   63.29%      10.03%
4        9.205421   36.77   70.87%      16.40%
5        8.517604   42.51   73.04%      34.57%
6        7.94645    47.58   74.85%      50.62%
7        7.434972   51.92   76.47%      64.36%
8        7.070638   55.34   77.62%      75.18%

Compared to the feature disabled (threads=0), the overhead is negligible with
the threading code (threads=1), and the gain is already 48% with two threads.

this structure seems to tickle a bug in bundle's search for
changesets, so first we have to recreate it

setup test repo1

  $ hg init repo1
  $ cd repo1
  $ echo "rev 0" > foo.txt
  $ hg ci -Am"rev 0"
  adding foo.txt
  $ mkrev 1
  rev 1

first branch

  $ mkrev 2
  rev 2
  $ mkrev 3
  rev 3

back to rev 1 to create second branch

  $ hg up -r1
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ mkrev 4
  rev 4
  $ mkrev 5
  rev 5

merge first branch to second branch

  $ hg up -C -r5
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ HGMERGE=internal:local hg merge
  0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ echo "merge rev 5, rev 3" > foo.txt
  $ hg ci -m"merge first branch to second branch"

one more commit following the merge

  $ mkrev 7
  rev 7

back to "second branch" to make another head

  $ hg up -r5
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ mkrev 8
  rev 8

the story so far

  $ hg log -G --template "{rev}\n"

check that "hg outgoing" really does the right thing

sanity check of outgoing: expect revs 4 5 6 7 8

  $ hg clone -r3 . ../repo2
  adding changesets
  adding manifests
  adding file changes
  added 4 changesets with 4 changes to 1 files
  new changesets 6ae4cca4e39a:478f191e53f8
  updating to branch default
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved

this should (and does) report 5 outgoing revisions: 4 5 6 7 8

  $ hg outgoing --template "{rev}\n" ../repo2
  comparing with ../repo2
  searching for changes

test bundle (destination repo): expect 5 revisions

this should bundle the same 5 revisions that outgoing reported, but it

actually bundles 7

  $ hg bundle foo.bundle ../repo2
  searching for changes
  5 changesets found

test bundle (base revision): expect 5 revisions

this should (and does) give exactly the same result as bundle

with a destination repo... i.e. it's wrong too

  $ hg bundle --base 3 foo.bundle
  5 changesets found

  $ cd ..
