help: add topic about evolution, based on text from evolve extension
I've taken the text produced by `hg help evolution` when the evolve
extension is enabled and made that available by the same command with
just hg core. Changes I've made:
* Added "(EXPERIMENTAL)" to the title. (That doesn't hide the topic
from `hg help`, though.)
* Replaced old-style `experimental.evolution=<names>` config by
new-style `experimental.evolution.<name>=true`.
* Replaces a "obsolete markers" by "obsolescence markers".
* Removed most content from "Current feature status".
When the evolve extension is enabled, its help text takes precedence.

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. The dirstate is correct nonetheless, and
so hg status correctly shows a as clean.
$ 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 2 (set |unset) a (re)
$ echo a > a; hg status; hg diff
