dirstate-tree: Avoid BTreeMap double-lookup when inserting a dirstate entry
The child nodes of a given node in the tree-shaped dirstate are kept in a
`BTreeMap` where keys are file names as strings. Finding or inserting a value
in the map takes `O(log(n))` string comparisons, which adds up when constructing
the tree.
The `entry` API allows finding a "spot" in the map that may or may not be
occupied and then access that value or insert a new one without doing map
lookup again. However the current API is limited in that calling `entry`
requires an owned key (and so a memory allocation), even if it ends up not
being used in the case where the map already has a value with an equal key.
This is still a win, with 4% better end-to-end time for `hg status` measured
here with hyperfine:
