cmdutil: reimplement finddate() without using walkchangerevs()

It's simpler and slightly faster maybe because a fewer Python ops would
run.

Unscientific benchmark:

  $ python -m timeit \
    -s 'from mercurial import hg, ui, cmdutil; repo = hg.repository(ui.ui())' \
    'cmdutil.finddate(repo.ui, repo, "<2008-01-01")'
  (orig) 10 loops, best of 3: 1.45 sec per loop
  (new)  10 loops, best of 3: 1.25 sec per loop

Now "hg churn" and "hg grep" are the only users of walkchangerevs(), which
I want to refactor and fix bugs.
