obsstore: update create docstring to point to the coder friendly function

The `obsstore` class have a `create` method that create new obsolescence marker
from node. There is another function in the same module `createmarkers`. This
other function is higher level and automatically missing meta data (ultimately
calling the first one)

We add a new comment in the docstring of `obsstore.create` highlighting that
people writing new code probably want to use the top level one.

 """Obsolete markers handling
 
 An obsolete marker maps an old changeset to a list of new
 changesets. If the list of new changesets is empty, the old changeset
 is said to be "killed". Otherwise, the old changeset is being
 "replaced" by the new changesets.
 
 Obsolete markers can be used to record and distribute changeset graph
 transformations performed by history rewriting operations, and help
 building new tools to reconciliate conflicting rewriting actions. To
 facilitate conflicts resolution, markers include various annotations
 besides old and news changeset identifiers, such as creation date or
 author name.
 
 The old obsoleted changeset is called "precursor" and possible replacements are
 called "successors".  Markers that used changeset X as a precursors are called
 "successor markers of X" because they hold information about the successors of
 X. Markers that use changeset Y as a successors are call "precursor markers of
 Y" because they hold information about the precursors of Y.
 
 Examples:
 
 - When changeset A is replacement by a changeset A', one marker is stored:
 
     (A, (A'))
 
 - When changesets A and B are folded into a new changeset C two markers are
   stored:
 
     (A, (C,)) and (B, (C,))
 
 - When changeset A is simply "pruned" from the graph, a marker in create:
 
     (A, ())
 
 - When changeset A is split into B and C, a single marker are used:
 
     (A, (C, C))
 
   We use a single marker to distinct the "split" case from the "divergence"
   case. If two independents operation rewrite the same changeset A in to A' and
   A'' when have an error case: divergent rewriting. We can detect it because
   two markers will be created independently:
 
   (A, (B,)) and (A, (C,))
 
 Format
 ------
 
 Markers are stored in an append-only file stored in
 '.hg/store/obsstore'.
 
 The file starts with a version header:
 
 - 1 unsigned byte: version number, starting at zero.
 
 
 The header is followed by the markers. Each marker is made of:
 
 - 1 unsigned byte: number of new changesets "R", could be zero.
 
 - 1 unsigned 32-bits integer: metadata size "M" in bytes.
 
 - 1 byte: a bit field. It is reserved for flags used in obsolete
   markers common operations, to avoid repeated decoding of metadata
   entries.
 
 - 20 bytes: obsoleted changeset identifier.
 
 - N*20 bytes: new changesets identifiers.
 
 - M bytes: metadata as a sequence of nul-terminated strings. Each
   string contains a key and a value, separated by a color ':', without
   additional encoding. Keys cannot contain '\0' or ':' and values
   cannot contain '\0'.

 ### obsolescence marker flag
 
 ## bumpedfix flag
 #
 # When a changeset A' succeed to a changeset A which became public, we call A'
 # "bumped" because it's a successors of a public changesets
 #
 # o    A' (bumped)
 # |`:
 # | o  A
 # |/
 # o    Z
 #
 # The way to solve this situation is to create a new changeset Ad as children
 # of A. This changeset have the same content than A'. So the diff from A to A'
 # is the same than the diff from A to Ad. Ad is marked as a successors of A'
 #
 # o   Ad
 # |`:
 # | x A'
 # |'|
 # o | A
 # |/
 # o Z
 #
 # But by transitivity Ad is also a successors of A. To avoid having Ad marked
 # as bumped too, we add the `bumpedfix` flag to the marker. <A', (Ad,)>.
 # This flag mean that the successors express the changes between the public and
 # bumped version and fix the situation, breaking the transitivity of
 # "bumped" here.

     The successors set of a changeset A are a group of revisions that succeed
     A. It succeeds A as a consistent whole, each revision being only a partial
     replacement. The successors set contains non-obsolete changesets only.
 
     This function returns the full list of successor sets which is why it
     returns a list of tuples and not just a single tuple. Each tuple is a valid
     successors set. Not that (A,) may be a valid successors set for changeset A
     (see below).
 
     In most cases, a changeset A will have a single element (e.g. the changeset
     A is replaced by A') in its successors set. Though, it is also common for a
     changeset A to have no elements in its successor set (e.g. the changeset
     has been pruned). Therefore, the returned list of successors sets will be
     [(A',)] or [], respectively.
 
     When a changeset A is split into A' and B', however, it will result in a
     successors set containing more than a single element, i.e. [(A',B')].
     Divergent changesets will result in multiple successors sets, i.e. [(A',),
     (A'')].
 
     If a changeset A is not obsolete, then it will conceptually have no
     successors set. To distinguish this from a pruned changeset, the successor
     set will only contain itself, i.e. [(A,)].
 
     Finally, successors unknown locally are considered to be pruned (obsoleted
     without any successors).
 
     The optional `cache` parameter is a dictionary that may contain precomputed
     successors sets. It is meant to reuse the computation of a previous call to
     `successorssets` when multiple calls are made at the same time. The cache
     dictionary is updated in place. The caller is responsible for its live
     spawn. Code that makes multiple calls to `successorssets` *must* use this
