revlog: fix for generaldelta distance calculation
The decision whether or not to store a full snapshot instead of a delta is done
based on the distance value calculated in _addrevision.builddelta(rev).
This calculation traditionally used the fact of deltas only using the previous
revision as base. Generaldelta mechanism is changing this, yet the calculation
still assumes that current-offset minus chainbase-offset equals chain-length.
This appears to be wrong.
This patch corrects the calculation by means of using the chainlength function
if Generaldelta is used.

tests: reduce spurious failures when run with generaldelta
Quite a few tests fail in noisy but meaningless ways when the test suite
is run with generaldelta enabled:
./run-tests.py --extra-config-opt=format.generaldelta=1
This reduces the amount of noise introduced by the debugindex command,
the main source of differences. In my environment, when testing with
generaldelta enabled, this change reduces the number of completely
failing tests from 21 to 8.
