revert: option to choose what to keep, not what to discard

I know the you (the reader) are probably tired of discussing how `hg
revert -i -r .` should behave and so am I. And I know I'm one of the
people who argued that showing the diff from the working copy to the
parent was confusing. I think it is less confusing now that we show
the diff from the parent to the working copy, but I still find it
confusing. I think showing the diff of hunks to keep might make it
easier to understand. So that's what this patch provides an option
for.

One argument doing it this way is that most people seem to find `hg
split` natural. I suspect that is because it shows the forward diff
(from parent commit to the commit) and asks you what to put in the
first commit. I think the new "keep" mode for revert (this patch)
matches that.

In "keep" mode, all the changes are still selected by default. That
means that `hg revert -i` followed by 'A' (keep all) (or 'c' in
curses) will be different from `hg revert -a`. That's mostly because
that was simplest. It can also be argued that it's safest. But it can
also be argued that it should be consistent with `hg revert -a`.

Note that in this mode, you can edit the hunks and it will do what you
expect (e.g. add new lines to your file if you added a new lines when
editing). The test case shows that that works.

#require reporevlogstore

A repo with unknown revlogv2 requirement string cannot be opened

  $ hg init invalidreq
  $ cd invalidreq
  $ echo exp-revlogv2.unknown >> .hg/requires
  $ hg log
  abort: repository requires features unknown to this Mercurial: exp-revlogv2.unknown!
  (see https://mercurial-scm.org/wiki/MissingRequirement for more information)

  $ cd ..

Can create and open repo with revlog v2 requirement

  $ cat >> $HGRCPATH << EOF
  > [experimental]
  > revlogv2 = enable-unstable-format-and-corrupt-my-data
  > EOF

  $ hg init empty-repo
  $ cd empty-repo
  $ cat .hg/requires
  dotencode
  exp-revlogv2.1
  fncache
  sparserevlog
  store

  $ hg log

Unknown flags to revlog are rejected

  >>> with open('.hg/store/00changelog.i', 'wb') as fh:
  ...     fh.write(b'\x00\x04\xde\xad') and None

  $ hg log
  abort: unknown flags (0x04) in version 57005 revlog 00changelog.i!

Writing a simple revlog v2 works

  $ hg init simple
  $ cd simple
  $ touch foo
  $ hg -q commit -A -m initial

  $ hg log
