refactor: prefer checks against nullrev over nullid A common pattern is using a changeset context and obtaining the node to compare against nullid. Change this to obtain the nullrev instead. In the future, the nullid becomes a property of the repository and is no longer a global constant, so using nullrev is much easier to reason about. Python function call overhead makes the difference moot, but future changes will result in more dictionary lookups otherwise, so prefer the simpler pattern.

git: skeleton of a new extension to _directly_ operate on git repos...
r44961 Octopus Merge Support
=====================
This will be moderately complicated, as we'll need to synthesize phony
changeset entries to explode the octopus into "revisions" that only
have two parents each. For today, we can probably just do something like
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaXX{20 bytes of exploded node's hex sha}
where XX is a counter (so we could have as many as 255 parents in a
git commit - more than I think we'd ever see.) That means that we can
install some check in this extension to disallow checking out or
otherwise interacting with the `aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa` revisions.
Interface Creation
====================
We at least need an interface definition for `changelog` in core that
this extension can satisfy, and again for `basicstore`.
Reason About Locking
====================
We should spend some time thinking hard about locking, especially on
.git/index etc. We're probably adequately locking the _git_
repository, but may not have enough locking correctness in places
where hg does locking that git isn't aware of (notably the working
copy, which I believe Git does not lock.)
