Avoid extra filelogs entries.
Right now, there are some situations in which localrepo.filecommit can
create filelog entries even though they're not needed. For example:
- permissions for a file have changed;
- qrefresh can create a filelog entry identical to its parent (see the
added test);
- convert-repo creates extra filelog entries in every merge where the
first parent has added files (for example, changeset
ebebe9577a1a of
the kernel repo added extra filelog entries to files in the
arch/blackfin directory, even though the merge should only touch the
drivers/ata directory). This makes "hg log file" in a converted repo
less useful than it could be, since it may mention many merges that
don't actually touch that specific file.
They all come from the same basic problem: localrepo.commit (through
filecommit) creates new filelog entries for all files passed to it
(except for some cases during a merge).

issue351.
Make sure the changelog mentions files whose flags changed
These changes don't actually need a new filelog entry (see next patch),
but if we don't mention the files in the changelog, it becomes much
harder to find all changesets that touch a file (not even a
"hg log --removed file" will work).
