status: prefer relative paths in Rust code
… when the repository root is under the current directory,
so the kernel needs to traverse fewer directory in every call
to `read_dir` or `symlink_metadata`.
Better yet would be to use libc functions like `openat` and `fstatat`
to remove such repeated traversals entirely, but the standard library
does not provide APIs based on those.
Maybe with a crate like https://crates.io/crates/openat instead?
Benchmarks of `rhg status` show that this patch is neutral in some configurations,
and makes the command up to ~20% faster in others.
Below is semi-arbitrary subset of results. The four numeric columns are:
time (in seconds) with this changeset’s parent, time with this changeset,
time difference (negative is better), time ratio (less than 1 is better).
