log: resolve --follow thoroughly in getlogrevs()

This makes sense because --follow isn't really an option to filter revisions,
but an option to extend revisions to be filtered.

_fileancestors() is a minimal copy of revset._follow(). They are slightly
different in that which revision the matcher sees. _fileancestors() also
uses ctx.walk() instead of ctx.manifest().walk() to show a better warning
on bad match, which will be tested later.

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

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).
