branchcache: move the processing of the new data in a dedicated method
In a future changeset, this will allow the V3 of the branch cache to use a fast
path when possible.

branchcache: gather newly closed head in a dedicated set
This is part of a series to more clearly split the update in two step. This
will allow us to introduce a fast path during update in a future changeset.

branchcache: gather new obsolete revision in a set

branchcache: filter obsolete revisions sooner
Since we won't do anything with the obsolete revisions, we can just ignore them
sooner.

branchcache: skip entries that are topological heads in the on disk file
In the majority of cases, topological heads are also branch heads. We have
efficient way to get the topological heads and efficient way to retrieve
their branch information. So there is little value in putting them in the branch
cache file explicitly. On the contrary, writing them explicitly tend to create
very large cache file that are inefficient to read and update.
So the branch cache v3 format is no longer including them. This changeset focus
on the format aspect and have no focus on the performance aspect. We will cover
that later.

branchcache: simplify the branch rev cache test
We don't need that many content dump and this gets in the way in change in
access pattern (e.g. accessing revision in a different order change the order of
branches in the "names" file).
So we simplify this test in advance.
