branchcache: stop storing a repository instance on the cache altogether

We did not really needed it and we do not needs it anymore at all. So lets make
things simpler for consistency and garbage collecting and stop storing it
altogether.

= Mercurial 6.5.3 =

 * "hgweb: pass strings in WSGI environment correctly from wsgicgi"
 * "perf: introduce more cache invalidation option in perf::tags"
 * "perf: add a `--clear-fnode-cache-rev` argument to perf::tags"
 * "perf: add a --update-last flag to perf::tags"
 * "blackbox: add a option to duplicate output to stderr too"
 * "tags: avoid expensive access to repo.changelog in a loop"
 * "revlog: fix a bug where NULL_NODE failed to be resolved to NULL_REV"
 * "httppeer: fix static-http: scheme autodetection (issue6833)"
 * "tests: backed out changeset 8037ddacad47"
 * "stream-clone: fix a crash when a repo with an empty revlog is cloned"
 * "censor: accept censored revision during upgrade"
 * "revlog: avoid opening and closing the file for each cloned revision"

= Mercurial 6.5.2 =

 * hgweb: encode WSGI environment using the ISO-8859-1 codec
 * rhg: fix the bug where sparse config is interpreted as relglob instead of glob
 * gpg: fix an UnboundLocalError whenever using --force
 * transaction: fix __repr__() and make the default name bytes
 * setup: make the error "Unable to find a working hg binary" more informative
 * tests: avoid test environment affecting setup.py
 * run-tests: detect HGWITHRUSTEXT value

= Mercurial 6.5.1 =

 * A bunch of improvements to Python 3.12 compatibility
 * repoview: fix the filter created by `extrafilter`
 * Improve portability of the test suite
 * fncache: fix a bug that corrupts the fncache after transaction rollback
 * revlog: fix the naming scheme use by split temporary file
 * perf: fix perf::tags
