test: explicitly "add" file before some commit in test-rollback.t

`hg commit -A` will revert the `hg addremove` step if the commit fails. However
`hg rollback` currently does not.

We are about to improve internal consistency around transaction and dirstate and the behavior of `hg rollback` will align on the other behavior in the process.

Before doing so, we make sure the test is using a separate call to `hg add` to
avoid the test scenario to be affected by that future change.

note: the behavior change for `hg rollback` seems fine as it affect a niche
usecase and `hg rollback` usage have been strongly discouraged for a while.

How to add fuzzers (partially cribbed from oss-fuzz[0]):

  1) git clone https://github.com/google/oss-fuzz
  2) cd oss-fuzz
  3) python infra/helper.py build_image mercurial
  4) docker run --cap-add=SYS_PTRACE -it -v $HG_REPO_PATH:/hg-new \
         gcr.io/oss-fuzz/mercurial bash
  5) cd /src
  6) rm -r mercurial
  7) ln -s /hg-new mercurial
  8) cd mercurial
  9) compile
  10) ls $OUT

Step 9 is literally running the command "compile", which is part of
the docker container. Once you have that working, you can build the
fuzzers like this (in the oss-fuzz repo):

python infra/helper.py build_fuzzers --sanitizer address mercurial $HG_REPO_PATH

(you can also say "memory", "undefined" or "coverage" for
sanitizer). Then run the built fuzzers like this:

python infra/helper.py run_fuzzer mercurial -- $FUZZER
