patch: support diff data loss detection and upgrade

In worst case, generating diff in upgrade mode can be two times more expensive
than generating it in git mode directly: we may have to regenerate the whole
diff again whenever a git feature is detected. Also, the first diff attempt is
completely buffered instead of being streamed. That said, even without having
profiled it yet, I am convinced we can fast-path the upgrade mode if necessary
were it to be used in regular diff commands, and not only in mq where avoiding
data loss is worth the price.

#!/bin/sh

mkdir t
cd t
hg init
echo a > a
hg ci -Ama -d '1000000000 0'
echo b > b
hg branch b
hg ci -Amb -d '1000000000 0'
hg co -C 0

echo fast-forward
hg merge b
hg ci -Ammerge -d '1000000000 0'

echo bogus fast-forward should fail
hg merge b

echo done
