caches: stop warming the cache after 'localrepo.commitctx'
Now that we garantee that branchmap cache are updated at the end of the
transaction we can drop that one. This removes a problematic case with nested
transaction where the new cache could be written on disk before the transaction
is finished.
The test change is harmless, since we update the cache at a later point, the
dirstate have been updated in between.

caches: introduce a 'debugupdatecaches' command
That command make sure caches are updated. This is based on
'localrepo.updatecaches' so when we move support for new cache in that function this
command will benefit from it.

caches: call 'repo.updatecache()' in 'repo.destroyed()'
Regenerating the cache after a 'strip' or a 'rollback' is useful. So we call the
generic cache warming function as other caches than just branchmap will be
updated there in the future.
To do so, we have to make 'repo.updatecache()' able to take no arguments. In
such cases, we reload all caches.

caches: introduce a function to warm cache
We have multiple caches that gain from being kept up to date. For example in a
server setup, we want to make sure the branchcache cache is hot for other
read-only clients.
Right now each cache tries to update themself in place where new data have been
added. However the approach is error prone (we might miss some spot) and
fragile. When nested transaction are involved, such cache updates might happen
before a top level transaction is committed. Writing caches for uncommitted
data on disk.
Having a single entry point, run at the end of each successful transaction,
helps to ensure the cache is up to date and refreshed at the right time.
We start with updating the branchmap cache but other will come.

transaction: track newly introduced revisions
Tracking revisions is not the data that will unlock the most new capability.
However, they are the simplest thing to track and still unlock some nice
improvements in regard with caching.
We plug ourself at the changelog level to make sure we do not miss any revision
additions.
The 'revs' set is configured at the repository level because the transaction
itself does not needs to know that much about the business logic.

transaction: introduce "changes" dictionary to precisely track updates
The transaction is already tracking some data intended for hooks (in
'hookargs'). However, that information is minimal as we optimise for
passing data to other processes through environment variables. There are
multiple places were we could use more complete and lower level
information locally (eg: cache update, better report of changes to
hooks, etc...).
For this purpose we introduces a 'changes' dictionary on the
transaction. It is intended to track every changes happening to the
repository (eg: new revs, bookmarks move, phases move, obs-markers,
etc).
For now we just adds the 'changes' dictionary. We'll adds more tracking
and usages over time.
