test-revlog: test a repository that contains a diff against nullrev

We are witnessing a crash in the rust code, so we lets make sure this case is
tested.

+Regression test for support for the old repos with strange diff encoding.
+Apparently it used to be possible (maybe it's still possible, but we don't know how)
+to create commits whose diffs are encoded relative to a nullrev.
+This test checks that a repo with that encoding can still be read.
+
+This is what we did to produce the repo in test-revlog-diff-relative-to-nullrev.tar:
+
+- tweak the code in mercurial/revlogutils/deltas.py to produce such "trivial" deltas:
