rev-branch-cache: disable mmapping by default on Windows

See the inline comment for why.  The commands work, other than leaving extra
files laying around.

Perhaps there's some way to get this to work like on posix with some
`CreateFile` magic (though it already uses `FILE_SHARE_DELETE`, so I'm not sure
offhand what else we can do).  However big picture- it seems wrong that the old
file is left mmapped, a new one moved into place, and the mapping left over the
old file instead of retargeted to the new file.  That's got to be a bug on posix
too, in a long running process like chg, right?  If the memory is read again for
some reason, it will be stale data.

Mercurial 6.3.

== New Experimental Features ==

 * shelve: in test for trailing whitespace, strip commit (issue6735)

   will now return an error if hg cannot find the current working directory,
   even when a different directory is specified via `--cwd`.
