similar revsets now that the C code is correctly wired up.
reachableroots: return NULL if we're throwing an exception
Based on my reading of [0] and surrounding sections, if we want an
exception to be properly raised when something goes wrong in the C
code, we need to make sure we return NULL here. Do so.

reachableroots: fix transposition of set and list types in PyArg_ParseTuple
This is being masked by the function not properly returning NULL when
it raises an exception, so the client code was just falling back to
the native codepath when it got None back. A future change removes all
reason for this C function to return None, which exposed this problem
during development.
