outgoing: rework the handling of the `missingroots` case to be faster
The previous implementation was slow, to the point it was taking a significant
amount of `hg bundle --type none-streamv2` call. We rework the code to compute
the same value much faster, making the operation disappear from the `hg bundle
--type none-streamv2` profile. Someone would remark that producing a streamclone
does not requires an `outgoing` object. However that is a matter for another
day. There is other user of `missingroots` (non stream `hg bundle` call for
example), and they will also benefit from this rework.
We implement an old TODO in the process, directly computing the missing and
common attribute as we have most element at hand already.

note: this whole `missingroots` of outgoing has a limited number of callers and
could likely be replace by something simpler (like taking an explicit
"missing_revs" set for example). However this is a wider change and we focus on
a small impact, quick rework that does not change the API for now.

proxy-vfs: also proxy the `audit` attribute
In the previous changeset, we had to do a little dance to access the useful
`audit` attribute. We now provide a proper accessors to it.
We don't update the code in `perf.py` because it has to remain compatible with
older version of Mercurial. This will just be nicer in the future.

perf: clear vfs audit_cache before each run
When generating a stream clone, we spend a large amount of time auditing path.
Before this changes, the first run was warming the vfs cache for the other
runs, leading to a large runtime difference and a "faulty" reported timing for
the operation.
We now clear this important cache between run to get a more realistic timing.
Below are some example of median time change when clearing these cases. The
maximum time for a run did not changed significantly.

In addition, this significantly reduce the timing difference between the
performance command, from the perf extensions and a `real `hg bundle` call
producing a stream bundle. Some significant differences remain especially on
the "mozilla-try" repositories, but they are now smaller.
Note that some of that difference will actually not be
attributable to the stream generation (like maybe phases or branch map
computation).

phases: rework the logic of _pushdiscoveryphase to bound complexity
This rework the various graph traversal in _pushdiscoveryphase to keep the
complexity in check.
This is done though a couple of things:
- first, limiting the space we have to explore, for example, if we are not in
publishing push, we don't need to consider remote draft roots that are also
draft locally, as there is nothing to be moved there.
- avoid unbounded descendant computation, and use the faster "rev between"
computation.
This provide a massive boost to performance when exchanging with repository with
a massive amount of draft, like mozilla-try:

before: 24.752051 seconds
after: 15.367412 seconds (-37.91%, -9.38 seconds)
After this changes, the push operation is still quite too slow. Some of this
can be attributed to general phases slowness (reading all the roots from disk
for example) and other know slowness (not using persistent-nodemap, branchmap,
tags, etc. We are also working on them, but with this series, phase discovery
during push no longer showing up in profile and this is a pretty nice and bit
low-hanging fruit out of the way.

Again, we take this as an opportunity to rename the class, and the attribute to
the new naming scheme. This will highlight the need for code update for any
code using it an expecting node-ids.
Many of the rev-num → node-id conversion we had to introduce in the previous
changesets can now be removed. More will be removed in the future as we continue
to align code toward rev-num usage.

This is especially true as we prepare ourself to no longer do the rev-num →
node-id transalation there.
The speedup is a bit lost in the overall noisyness of the slow phase discovery algorithm, but it save a small amount of time in my benchmark.

phases: use revision number in new_heads
All graph operations will be done using revision numbers, so passing nodes only
means they will eventually get converted to revision numbers internally.
As part of an effort to align the code on using revision number we make the
`phases.newheads` function operated on revision number, taking them as input
and using them in returns, instead of the node-id it used to consume and
produce.
This is part of multiple changesets effort to translate more part of the logic,
but is done step by step to facilitate the identification of issue that might
arise in mercurial core and extensions.
To make the change simpler to handle for third party extensions, we also rename
the function, using a more modern form. This will help detecting the different
between the node-id version and the rev-num version.
I also take this as an opportunity to add some comment about possible
performance improvement for the future. They don't matter too much now, but they
are worse exploring in a while.

push: rework the computation of fallbackheads to be correct
The previous computation tried to be smart but ended up being wrong. This was
caught by phase movement test while reworking the phase discovery logic to be
faster.
The previous logic was failing to catch case where the pushed set was not based
on a common heads (i.e. when the discovery seemed to have "over discovered"
content, outside the pushed set)
In the following graph, `e` is a common head and we `hg push -r f`. We need to
detect `c` as a fallback heads and we previous failed to do so::
e
|
d f
|/
c
|
b
|
a
The performance impact of the change seems minimal. On the most impacted
repository at hand (mozilla-try), the slowdown seems mostly mixed in the
overall noise `hg push` but seems to be in the hundred of milliseconds order of
magnitude. When using rust, we seems to be a bit faster, probably because we
leverage more accelaratd internals.
I added a couple of performance related common for further investigation later
on.

revset: stop serializing node when using "%ln"
Turning hundred of thousand of node from node to hex and back can be slow… what
about we stop doing it?
In many case were we are using node id we should be using revision id. However
this is not a good reason to have a stupidly slow implementation of "%ln".
This caught my attention again because the phase discovery during push make an
extensive use of "%ln" or huge set. In absolute, that phase discovery probably
should use "%ld" and need to improves its algorithmic complexity, but improving
"%ln" seems simple and long overdue. This greatly speeds up `hg push` on
repository with many drafts.

The evidence to support this:
- the test actually passes with the stronger invariant, revealing no
exceptions from this rule
- the implementation of `visit_children_set` for `DifferenceMatcher`
clearly relies on this requirement, so it must hold for that not to
lead to bugs.
