rust-config: fix fallback to default not parsing the default value
When a config item's default is a string, it sometimes needs to be parsed
into another type, like in the case of `cmdserver.max-log-size`, that returns
a number of bytes from a human-readable amount like `25MB`.
The logic for the fix is explained inline.
rust-config: demonstrate a bug when falling back to non-trivial default values
The default value (when the user hasn't configured anything) is not run
through the value parser, causing a programming error to happen because
of type mismatch. This will be fixed in the next commit.
rust: make `Revision` a newtype
This change is the one we've been building towards during this series.
The aim is to make `Revision` mean more than a simple integer, holding
the information that it is valid for a given revlog index.
While this still allows for programmer error, since creating a revision
directly and querying a different index with a "checked" revision are
still possible, the friction created by the newtype will hopefully make
us think twice about which type to use.
Enough of the Rust ecosystem relies on the newtype pattern to be
efficiently optimized away (even compiler in codegen testsĀ¹), so I'm not
worried about this being a fundamental problem.
