manifestv2: add support for reading new manifest format

The new manifest format is designed to be smaller, in particular to
produce smaller deltas. It stores hashes in binary and puts the hash
on a new line (for smaller deltas). It also uses stem compression to
save space for long paths. The format has room for metadata, but
that's there only for future-proofing. The parser thus accepts any
metadata and throws it away. For more information, see
http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/ManifestV2Plan.

The current manifest format doesn't allow an empty filename, so we use
an empty filename on the first line to tell a manifest of the new
format from the old. Since we still never write manifests in the new
format, the added code is unused, but it is tested by
test-manifest.py.

Create a repository:

  $ hg config
  defaults.backout=-d "0 0"
  defaults.commit=-d "0 0"
  defaults.shelve=--date "0 0"
  defaults.tag=-d "0 0"
  largefiles.usercache=$TESTTMP/.cache/largefiles (glob)
  ui.slash=True
  ui.interactive=False
  ui.mergemarkers=detailed
  ui.promptecho=True
  $ hg init t
  $ cd t

Make a changeset:

  $ echo a > a
  $ hg add a
  $ hg commit -m test

This command is ancient:

  $ hg history
  changeset:   0:acb14030fe0a
  tag:         tip
  user:        test
  date:        Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 +0000
  summary:     test
  

Verify that updating to revision 0 via commands.update() works properly

  $ cat <<EOF > update_to_rev0.py
  > from mercurial import ui, hg, commands
  > myui = ui.ui()
  > repo = hg.repository(myui, path='.')
  > commands.update(myui, repo, rev=0)
  > EOF
  $ hg up null
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ python ./update_to_rev0.py
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ hg identify -n
  0


Poke around at hashes:

  $ hg manifest --debug
  b789fdd96dc2f3bd229c1dd8eedf0fc60e2b68e3 644   a

  $ hg cat a
  a

Verify should succeed:

  $ hg verify
  checking changesets
  checking manifests
  crosschecking files in changesets and manifests
  checking files
  1 files, 1 changesets, 1 total revisions

At the end...

  $ cd ..
