Before this changeset, Python code first creates an empty DirstateMap Rust
object, then immediately calls its read method with a byte string of the
contents of the .hg/dirstate file.
This makes that byte string available to the constructor of DirstateMap
in the hg-cpython crate. This is a first step towards enabling parts of
DirstateMap in the hg-core crate to borrow from this buffer without copying.
