clfilter: add a cache on repo for set of revision to filter for a given set. Recomputing the filtered revisions at every access to changelog is far too expensive. This changeset introduce a cache for this information. This cache is hold by the repository (unfiltered repository) and invalidated when necessary. This cache is not a protected attribute (leading _) because some logic that invalidate it is not held by the local repo itself.

class repoview(object):
    """Provide a read/write view of a repo through a filtered changelog

    This object is used to access a filtered version of a repository without
    altering the original repository object itself. We can not alter the
    original object for two main reasons:
    - It prevents the use of a repo with multiple filters at the same time. In
      particular when multiple threads are involved.
    - It makes scope of the filtering harder to control.

    This object behaves very closely to the original repository. All attribute
    operations are done on the original repository:
    - An access to `repoview.someattr` actually returns `repo.someattr`,
    - A write to `repoview.someattr` actually sets value of `repo.someattr`,
    - A deletion of `repoview.someattr` actually drops `someattr`
      from `repo.__dict__`.

    The only exception is the `changelog` property. It is overridden to return
    a (surface) copy of `repo.changelog` with some revisions filtered. The
    `filtername` attribute of the view control the revisions that need to be
    filtered.  (the fact the changelog is copied is an implementation detail).

    Unlike attributes, this object intercepts all method calls. This means that
    all methods are run on the `repoview` object with the filtered `changelog`
    property. For this purpose the simple `repoview` class must be mixed with
    the actual class of the repository. This ensures that the resulting
    `repoview` object have the very same methods than the repo object. This
    leads to the property below.

        repoview.method() --> repo.__class__.method(repoview)

    The inheritance has to be done dynamically because `repo` can be of any
    subclasses of `localrepo`. Eg: `bundlerepo` or `httprepo`.
