phases: avoid a potentially costly dictionary interation in some case

If we retract for the draft phase, there is not non-public item to be retracted
and we can skip this part. This part is was apparently super costly thanks to
Python.

On mozilla-try-2019-02-18, a perf::unbundle call with a 10 000 changesets
bundle gives give use the following timing.

e57d4b868a3e:     4.6 seconds
ac1c75188440:   102.5 seconds
this-changeset:  30.0 seconds

So we recovered about ⅔ of the regression, the next changeset will give us the
rest back.

== New Features ==

 * `hg mv -A` can now be used with `--at-rev`. It behaves just like
   `hg cp -A --at-rev`, i.e. it marks the destination as a copy of the
   source whether or not the source still exists (but the source must
   exist in the parent revision).

 * New revset predicate `diffcontains(pattern)` for filtering revisions
   in the same way as `hg grep --diff pattern`.

 * The memory footprint per changeset and per file during pull/unbundle
   operations has been significantly reduced.


== New Experimental Features ==



== Bug Fixes ==



== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==



== Internal API Changes ==

 * `merge.update()` is now private (renamed to `_update()`). Hopefully
   the higher-level functions available in the same module cover your
   use cases.

 * `phases.registernew` now takes a set of revisions instead of a list
   of nodes. `phases.advanceboundary` takes an optional set of revisions
   in addition to the list of nodes. The corresponeding members of the
   `phasecache` class follow this change.

 * The `addgroup` member of `revlog` classes no longer keeps a list of
   all found nodes. It now returns True iff a node was found in the group.
   An optional callback for duplicated nodes can be used by callers to keep
   track of all nodes themselve.

 * The `_chaininfocache` of `revlog` classes has been changed from a dict
   to a LRU cache.
