perf: add a `--clear-caches` to `perfbranchmapupdate`
This flag will help to measure the time we spend loading various cache that
support the branchmap update.
Example for an 500 000 revisions repository:
hg perfbranchmapupdate --base 'not tip' --target 'tip'
! wall 0.000860 comb 0.000000 user 0.000000 sys 0.000000 (best of 336)
hg perfbranchmapupdate --base 'not tip' --target 'tip' --clear-caches
! wall 0.029494 comb 0.030000 user 0.030000 sys 0.000000 (best of 100)

perf: start from an existing branchmap if possible
If the --base set if a superset of one of the cached branchmap, we should use as
a starting point. This greatly help the overall runtime of
`hg perfbranchmapupdate`
For example, for a repository with about 500 000 revisions, using this trick
make the command runtime move from about 200 second to about 10 seconds. A 20x
gain.

perf: rely on repoview for perfbranchmapupdate
Using 'repoview' matching the base and target subset make the benchmark more
realistic. It also unlocks optimization to make the command initialization
faster.
