perf: add perfrevlogrevision
As part of investigating performance improvements to revlog reading,
I needed a mechanism to measure every part of revlog reading so I knew
where time was spent and how effective optimizations were.
This patch implements a perf command for benchmarking the various
stages of reading a single revlog revision.
When executed against a manifest revision at the end of a 30,000+
long delta chain in mozilla-central, the command demonstrates that
~80% of time is spent in zlib decompression.
