obsolete: compute extinct changesets

`extinct` changesets are obsolete changesets with obsolete descendants only. They
are of no interest anymore and can be:

- exclude from exchange
- hidden to the user in most situation
- safely garbage collected

This changeset just allows mercurial to detect them.

The implementation is a bit naive, as for unstable changesets. We better use a
simple revset query and a cache, but simple version comes first.

basic test for hg debugrebuildstate

  $ hg init repo
  $ cd repo

  $ touch foo bar
  $ hg ci -Am 'add foo bar'
  adding bar
  adding foo

  $ touch baz
  $ hg add baz
  $ hg rm bar

  $ hg debugrebuildstate

state dump after

  $ hg debugstate --nodates | sort
  n 644         -1 bar
  n 644         -1 foo

status

  $ hg st -A
  ! bar
  ? baz
  C foo

  $ cd ..
