deltas: accept and skip None return for delta info They are some extra computation that will shortcut the delta compression if the delta seems hopeless, returning None.

delta: move some delta chain related computation earlier in deltainfo They are some more optimization change that will make use of this in the function. So we retrieve the data earlier.

deltas: skip if projected delta size is bigger than previous snapshot Before computing any delta, we get a basic estimation of the delta size we can expect and the resulted compressed value. We then checks this projected size against the `size(snapshotⁿ) > size(snapshotⁿ⁺¹)` constraint. This allows to exclude potential base candidates before doing any expensive computation. This only apply to the intermediate-snapshot case since this constraint only apply to them. For some pathological cases of a private repository this step provide a significant performance boost (timing from `hg perfrevlogwrite`): before: 14.115908 seconds after: 3.145906 seconds

deltas: skip if projected delta size does not match text size constraint Before computing any delta, we get a basic estimation of the delta size we can expect and the resulted compressed value. We then checks this projected size against the ½ⁿ size constraints. This allows to exclude potential base candidates before doing any expensive computation. This only apply to the intermediate-snapshot case since this constraint only apply to them. In practice we only perform this new checks for the manifestlog. Manifest log combine two property: it is likely to have delta chain issue and its diffing/compression is fairly predictable. The initial author of this changeset is Valentin Gatien-Baron providing the initial idea and initial testing, Pierre-Yves David later consolidated the code in the right location and run more extensive testing.

revlog: add the option to track the expected compression upper bound There are various optimization we can do if we can estimate the size of delta before actually spending CPU compressing them. So we add a attributed dedicated to tracking that. We only use it on Manifest because (1) it structure is quite stable across all Mercurial repository so its compression ratio is fairly universal. This is the revlog with most extreme delta (cf the sparse-revlog optimization). This will be put to use in later changesets. Right now the compression upper bound is set to 10. This is a fairly conservative value (observed value is more around 3), but I prefer to be safe while introducing the optimization principles. We can tune the optimization threshold later.

perf: clarify some of the custom behavior of `perfrevlogwrite` This reduce the chance of developers being surprised by special cases.

perf: fix perfrevlogwrite --count documentation The help text was copy pasted from the previous option.

rust: switched to 'cargo rustc' in setup.py This is more flexible in the passing of additional flags, also what setuptools_rust does, giving less uncertainty about non-Linux platforms.

rust-cpython: fix build for MacOSX MacOSX needs special link flags. Quoting the README of rust-cpython: create a `.cargo/config` with the following content: ``` [target.x86_64-apple-darwin] rustflags = [ "-C", "link-arg=-undefined", "-C", "link-arg=dynamic_lookup", ] ``` This is tested with Python 2.7 (Anaconda install) and Python 3 (Homebrew install)

rust-cpython: management of shared libray suffix Before this changeset, the shared library objects suffixes were both (rustc output and Python input) hardcoded to '.so', which is wrong for Python3 and non Linux targets.
