dirstate-v2: Add storage space for nanoseconds precision in file mtimes For now the sub-second component is always set to zero for tracked files and symlinks. (The mtime of directories for the `readdir`-skipping optimization is a different code path and already uses the full precision available.) This extra storage uses the space previously freed by replacing the 32-bit `mode` field by two bits in the existing `flags` field, so the overall size of nodes is unchanged. (This space had been left as padding for this purpose.) Also move things around in the node layout and documentation to have less duplication. Now that they have the same representation, directory mtime and file mtime are kept in the same field. (Only either one can exist for a given node.)

The censor system allows retroactively removing content from
files. Actually censoring a node requires using the censor extension,
but the functionality for handling censored nodes is partially in core.
Censored nodes in a filelog have the flag ``REVIDX_ISCENSORED`` set,
and the contents of the censored node are replaced with a censor
tombstone. For historical reasons, the tombstone is packed in the
filelog metadata field ``censored``. This allows censored nodes to be
(mostly) safely transmitted through old formats like changegroup
versions 1 and 2. When using changegroup formats older than 3, the
receiver is required to re-add the ``REVIDX_ISCENSORED`` flag when
storing the revision. This depends on the ``censored`` metadata key
never being used for anything other than censoring revisions, which is
true as of January 2017. Note that the revlog flag is the
authoritative marker of a censored node: the tombstone should only be
consulted when looking for a reason a node was censored or when revlog
flags are unavailable as mentioned above.
The tombstone data is a free-form string. It's expected that users of
censor will want to record the reason for censoring a node in the
tombstone. Censored nodes must be able to fit in the size of the
content being censored.
