rust: peek_mut optim for lazy ancestors This is one of the two optimizations that are also present in the Python code: replacing pairs of pop/push on the BinaryHeap by single updates, hence having it under the hood maintain its consistency (sift) only once. On Mozilla central, the measured gain (see details below) is around 7%. Creating the PeekMut object by calling peek_mut() right away instead of peek() first is less efficient (gain is only 4%, stats not included). Our interpretation is that its creation has a cost which is vasted in the cases where it ends by droping the value (Peekmut::pop() just does self.heap.pop() anyway). On the other hand, the immutable peek() is very fast: it's just taking a reference in the underlying vector. The Python version still has another optimization: if parent(current) == current-1, then the heap doesn't need to maintain its consistency, since we already know that it's bigger than all the others in the heap. Rust's BinaryHeap doesn't allow us to mutate its biggest element with no housekeeping, but we tried it anyway, with a copy of the BinaryHeap implementation with a dedicaded added method: it's not worth the technical debt in our opinion (we measured only a further 1.6% improvement). One possible explanation would be that the sift is really fast anyway in that case, whereas it's not in the case of Python, because it's at least partly done in slow Python code. Still it's possible that replacing BinaryHeap by something more dedicated to discrete ordered types could be faster.

fuzz: grep away HAVE_GETC_UNLOCKED in pyconfig.h to avoid msan badness Per discussion with Greg Smith and the patches on https://bugs.python.org/issue35214. This, combined with the previous patch, fixes msan builds on oss-fuzz. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5363

tests: stabilize test-blackbox.t on Windows I didn't look into why the error is more detailed, but that seems like it's a good thing (other than for recording tests).

tests: stabilize for recent wcache changes This goes with 47e3f554df35::d5622dfe4ba3. I'm not sure if it was really expected that there would be no wcache directory if neither execbit nor symlink is supported.

extdiff: avoid double backslashes in the displayed tool path on Windows This shows the tool path in the help, and changed in 67b180c0e263. uirepr() already does the same thing, but that undoes the mangling in its call to repr().

contrib: add a helper script that help to build interesting repositories The script is dedicated to building a couple of repositories that should be interesting to run discovery from one another. It seems a common enough need to contribute it upstream.
