remotefilelog: include file contents in bundles produced during strip `hg strip` and other things that use repair.strip (such as the narrow extension's `hg tracked --removeinclude`) will "save" some commits that have a higher revision number than the oldest commit we're stripping, but aren't actually descended from any of the commits that we're stripping. It saves them in a bundle, and then reapplies them to the repo. Remotefilelog doesn't generally participate in strip, it doesn't contribute files to either the backup bundle or the "saved" bundle, and doesn't adjust linknodes when commits are stripped. This can break things like push, which rely on the linknodes. This change makes it so that remotefilelog includes files in these bundles during strip operations. During reapplication, the files are reapplied from the bundle, and the linknode is properly updated. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10320

tests: add test-remotefilelog-strip.t to demonstrate an issue with linknodes ### Background Every time a commit is modified, remotefilelog updates the metadata for the file object to point to the new commit (I believe that this is different from non-remotefilelog hg, which leaves the linkrevs pointing to the obsolete commits; doing otherwise would involve changing data in the middle of revlogs). With `hg strip` (or other things that use repair.strip()), when you strip a commit that's not the tip of the revlog, there may be commits after it in revnum order that aren't descended from it and don't need to be (and shouldn't be) stripped. These are "saved" by strip in a bundle, and that bundle is reapplied after truncating the relevant revlogs. ### The problem Remotefilelog generally avoids being involved at all in strip. Currently, that includes even providing file contents to this backup bundle. This can cause the linknode to point to a changeset that is no longer in the repository. Example: ``` @ 3 df91f74b871e | | x 2 70494d7ec5ef |/ | x 1 1e423846dde0 |/ o 0 b292c1e3311f ``` Commits 1, 2, and 3 are related via obsolescence, and are description-only changes. The linknode for the file in these commits changed each time we updated the description, so it's currently df91f7. If I strip commits 1 and 3, however, the linknode *remains* df91f7, which no longer exists in the repository. Commit 70494d was "saved", stripped, and then reapplied, so it is in the repository (as revision 1 instead of 2 now), and was unobsoleted since the obsmarker was stripped as well. The linknode for the file should point to 70494d, the most recent commit that is in the repository that modified the file. Remotefilelog has some logic to handle broken linknodes, but it can be slow. We have actually disabled it internally because it's too slow for our purposes. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10319
