debugcommands: stub for debugupgraderepo command Currently, if Mercurial introduces a new repository/store feature or changes behavior of an existing feature, users must perform an `hg clone` to create a new repository with hopefully the correct/optimal settings. Unfortunately, even `hg clone` may not give the correct results. For example, if you do a local `hg clone`, you may get hardlinks to revlog files that inherit the old state. If you `hg clone` from a remote or `hg clone --pull`, changegroup application may bypass some optimization, such as converting to generaldelta. Optimizing a repository is harder than it seems and requires more than a simple `hg` command invocation. This commit starts the process of changing that. We introduce `hg debugupgraderepo`, a command that performs an in-place upgrade of a repository to use new, optimal features. The command is just a stub right now. Features will be added in subsequent commits. This commit does foreshadow some of the behavior of the new command, notably that it doesn't do anything by default and that it takes arguments that influence what actions it performs. These will be explained more in subsequent commits.
