setdiscovery: limit the size of the initial sample (issue4411)

The set discovery start by sending a "known" command with all local heads. When
the number of local heads is massive (eg: using hidden changesets) such request
becomes too large. This lead to 414 error over http, aborting the whole
process.

We limit the size of the sample used by the first query to fix this.

The test are impacted because they do test massive number of heads. But they do
not test it over real world http setup.

 """
 Algorithm works in the following way. You have two repository: local and
 remote. They both contains a DAG of changelists.
 
 The goal of the discovery protocol is to find one set of node *common*,
 the set of nodes shared by local and remote.
 
 One of the issue with the original protocol was latency, it could
 potentially require lots of roundtrips to discover that the local repo was a
 subset of remote (which is a very common case, you usually have few changes
 compared to upstream, while upstream probably had lots of development).
 
 The new protocol only requires one interface for the remote repo: `known()`,
 which given a set of changelists tells you if they are present in the DAG.
 
 The algorithm then works as follow:
 
  - We will be using three sets, `common`, `missing`, `unknown`. Originally
  all nodes are in `unknown`.
  - Take a sample from `unknown`, call `remote.known(sample)`
    - For each node that remote knows, move it and all its ancestors to `common`
    - For each node that remote doesn't know, move it and all its descendants
    to `missing`
  - Iterate until `unknown` is empty
 
 There are a couple optimizations, first is instead of starting with a random
 sample of missing, start by sending all heads, in the case where the local
 repo is a subset, you computed the answer in one round trip.
 
 Then you can do something similar to the bisecting strategy used when
 finding faulty changesets. Instead of random samples, you can try picking
 nodes that will maximize the number of nodes that will be
 classified with it (since all ancestors or descendants will be marked as well).
