branchcache: skip entries that are topological heads in the on disk file
In the majority of cases, topological heads are also branch heads. We have
efficient way to get the topological heads and efficient way to retrieve
their branch information. So there is little value in putting them in the branch
cache file explicitly. On the contrary, writing them explicitly tend to create
very large cache file that are inefficient to read and update.
So the branch cache v3 format is no longer including them. This changeset focus
on the format aspect and have no focus on the performance aspect. We will cover
that later.
this structure seems to tickle a bug in bundle's search for
changesets, so first we have to recreate it

check that "hg outgoing" really does the right thing
sanity check of outgoing: expect revs 4 5 6 7 8
$ hg clone -r3 . ../repo2
adding changesets
adding manifests
adding file changes
added 4 changesets with 4 changes to 1 files
new changesets 6ae4cca4e39a:478f191e53f8
updating to branch default
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
this should (and does) report 5 outgoing revisions: 4 5 6 7 8
$ hg outgoing --template "{rev}\n" ../repo2

test bundle (destination repo): expect 5 revisions
this should bundle the same 5 revisions that outgoing reported, but it
actually bundles 7
$ hg bundle foo.bundle ../repo2
searching for changes
5 changesets found
test bundle (base revision): expect 5 revisions
this should (and does) give exactly the same result as bundle
with a destination repo... i.e. it's wrong too
$ hg bundle --base 3 foo.bundle
5 changesets found
$ cd ..
