changegroup: fix file linkrevs during reorders (issue4462)
Previously, if reorder was true during the creation of a changegroup bundle,
it was possible that the manifest and filelogs would be reordered such that the
resulting bundle filelog had a linkrev that pointed to a commit that was not
the earliest instance of the filelog revision. For example:
With commits:
0<-1<---3<-4
\ /
--2<---
if 2 and 3 added the same version of a file, if the manifests of 2 and 3 have
their order reversed, but the changelog did not, it could produce a filelog with
linkrevs 0<-3 instead of 0<-2, which meant if commit 3 was stripped, it would
delete that file data from the repository and commit 2 would be corrupt (as
would any future pulls that tried to build upon that version of the file).
The fix is to make the linkrev fixup smarter. Previously it considered the first
manifest that added a file to be the first commit that added that file, which is
not true. Now, for every file revision we add to the bundle we make sure we
attach it to the earliest applicable linkrev.
