delta-find: move the emotion of parents in a dedicated method
After splitting the filtering, and with the `_candidate_groups` layer removed,
we can start splitting the group generation too. This helps to organize this
code and make it easier to modifying the future.

delta-find: explicitly deal with usage of the cached revision
We can remove this from the general logic path and directly deal with this
corner case early.
This result in a small change in test-generaldelta.t as it turns out that:
- at commit time we (sometimes) precompute a delta against p1 and pass it as the
cached delta.
- since cached delta where going through the same filtering as everything, we
could "optimize" the base if it applied to an empty delta, resulting in not
using the pre-computed delta.
The simpler logic fix the second item, making the cached delta base always actually
tested when requested.
Note that the computation of a fast delta against p1 only is questionable, but
looking into that is out of scope for this series.
