worker: support parallelization of functions with return values
Currently worker supports running functions that return a progress
iterator. Generalize it to handle function that return a progress
iterator then a return value.
It's unused in this commit, but will be used in the next one.

tests: show how the dirstate can end up containing wrong information
which can result in bad status output.
Concretely, this seems to be easily triggered by having a build system
watching the filesystem for changes, and rebuilding files that are
both tracked and generated while an update is happening.

rust: new rust options in setup.py
The --rust global option turns on usage (and by default compilation)
of the rust-cpython based mercurial.rustext.
Similarly to what's previously done for zstd, there is a --no-rust
option for the build_ext subcommand in order not to build
mercurial.rustext, allowing for an OS distribution to prebuild it.
The HGWITHRUSTEXT environment variable is still honored, and has
the same effect as before, but now it works mostly by making
the --rust global option defaulting to True, with some special
cases for the direct-ffi case (see more about that below)
Coincidentally, the --rust flag can also be passed from the make
commands, like actually all global options, in the PURE variable
make local PURE=--rust
This feels inappropriate, though, and we should follow up with
a proper make variable for that case.
Although the direct-ffi bindings aren't directly useful any more, we
keep them at this stage because
- they provide a short prototyping path for experiments in which a C extension
module has to call into a Rust extension. The proper way of doing that would
be to use capsules, and it's best to wait for our pull request onto
rust-cpython for that: https://github.com/dgrunwald/rust-cpython/pull/169
- Build support for capsules defined in Rust will probably need to reuse
some of what's currently in use for direct-ffi.

rust: using policy.importrust from Python callers
This commit converts all current Python callers of
mercurial.rustext to the new policy.importrust system.
After this point, going through policy.importrust
or policy.importmod (in some more distant future)
is mandatory for callers of Rust code outside of
Python tests.
We felt it to be appropriate to keep Rust-specific tests
run inconditionally if the Rust extensions are present.
