osutil: use getdirentriesattr on OS X if possible
This is a significant win for large repositories on OS X, especially with a
cold cache. Unfortunately we need to keep the lstat-based implementation around
for two reasons:
- Not all filesystems support this call.
- There's an edge case in which it's best to fall back to avoid a retry loop.
More about this in the comments.
The below tests are all performed on a Mac with an SSD running OS X 10.9, on a
repository with over 200k files. The results are best of 5 with simulated
best-effort conditions.
The gains with a hot cache are pretty impressive: 'hg status' goes from 5.18
seconds to 3.79 seconds.
However, a repository that large will probably already be using something like
hgwatchman [1], which helps much more (for this repo, 'hg status' with
hgwatchman is approximately 1 second). Where this really helps is when the
cache is cold [2]: hg status goes from 31.0 seconds to 9.66.
See http://lists.apple.com/archives/filesystem-dev/2014/Dec/msg00002.html for
some more discussion about this function.
This is based on a patch by Sean Farley <sean@farley.io>.

[2] There appears to be no easy way to clear the file cache (aka "vnodes") on
OS X short of rebooting. purge(8) purportedly does that but in my testing had
little effect. The workaround I came up with was to assume that vnode eviction
was LRU, make sure the kern.maxvnodes sysctl is smaller than the size of the
repository, then make sure we'd always miss the cache by running 'hg status' in
another clone of the repository before running it in the test repository.

"""recreate hardlinks between two repositories
When repositories are cloned locally, their data files will be
hardlinked so that they only use the space of a single repository.
Unfortunately, subsequent pulls into either repository will break
hardlinks for any files touched by the new changesets, even if
both repositories end up pulling the same changes.
Similarly, passing --rev to "hg clone" will fail to use any
hardlinks, falling back to a complete copy of the source
repository.
This command lets you recreate those hardlinks and reclaim that
wasted space.
This repository will be relinked to share space with ORIGIN, which
must be on the same local disk. If ORIGIN is omitted, looks for
"default-relink", then "default", in [paths].
Do not attempt any read operations on this repository while the
command is running. (Both repositories will be locked against
writes.)
