perf: add asv benchmarks
Airspeed velocity (ASV) is a python framework for benchmarking Python packages
over their lifetime. The results are displayed in an interactive web frontend.
Add ASV benchmarks for mercurial that use contrib/perf.py extension that could
be run against multiple reference repositories.
The benchmark suite now includes revsets from contrib/base-revsets.txt with
variants, perftags, perfstatus, perfmanifest and perfheads.
Installation requires asv>=0.2, python-hglib and virtualenv

#require no-symlink
# The following script was used to create the bundle:
#
# hg init symlinks
# cd symlinks
# echo a > a
# mkdir d
# echo b > d/b
# ln -s a a.lnk
# ln -s d/b d/b.lnk
# hg ci -Am t
# hg bundle --base null ../test-no-symlinks.hg
Extract a symlink on a platform not supporting them
$ hg init t
$ cd t
$ hg pull -q "$TESTDIR/bundles/test-no-symlinks.hg"
$ hg update
4 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ cat a.lnk && echo
a
$ cat d/b.lnk && echo
d/b
Copy a symlink and move another
$ hg copy a.lnk d/a2.lnk
$ hg mv d/b.lnk b2.lnk
$ hg ci -Am copy
$ cat d/a2.lnk && echo
a
$ cat b2.lnk && echo
d/b
Bundle and extract again
$ hg bundle --base null ../symlinks.hg
