context: override workingctx.hex() to avoid a crash

Since node is None for workingctx, it can't use the base class
implementation of 'hex(self.node())'.

It doesn't appear that there are any current callers of this, but there will be
when archive supports 'wdir()'.  My first thought was to use "{p1node}+", but
that would cause headaches elsewhere [1].

We should probably fix up localrepository.__getitem__ to accept this hash for
consistency, as a followup.  This works, if the full hash is specified:

           if isinstance(changeid, slice):
               return [context.changectx(self, i)

That differs from null, where it will accept any number of 0s, as long as it
isn't ambiguous.
