tests: show how the dirstate can end up containing wrong information which can result in bad status output. Concretely, this seems to be easily triggered by having a build system watching the filesystem for changes, and rebuilding files that are both tracked and generated while an update is happening.

Checking the size/permissions/file-type of files stored in the
dirstate after an update where the files are changed concurrently
outside of hg's control.
$ hg init repo
$ cd repo
$ echo a > a
$ hg commit -qAm _
$ echo aa > a
$ hg commit -m _
$ hg debugdirstate --no-dates
n 644 3 (set |unset) a (re)

Do an update where file 'a' is changed between hg writing it to disk
and hg writing the dirstate. It results in a corrupted dirstate, which
stores the wrong size, and thus hg status shows spuriously modified
files.
$ hg up -r 0 --config extensions.race=$TESTTMP/dirstaterace.py
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ hg debugdirstate --no-dates
n 644 0 (set |unset) a (re)
$ echo a > a; hg status; hg diff
M a
