rHG92ed344a9e64: revlog: use radix tree also for matching keys shorter than 4 hex digits
Summary

I don't know what the reason for the 4-digit limit was, and I can't
think of any real disadvantages of using the radix tree also when the
requested minimum length is short. This speeds up `hg log -T
'{shortest(node,1)}\n'` from 2m16s to 4.5s by making that not fall
back to pure code.

"I don't know what the reason for the 4-digit limit was,"

I guessed it would avoid building a full radix tree where a given hash
was likely to be ambiguous, but maybe I'm wrong since it seems clear that
linear scan in Python wouldn't be faster than building radix tree in C.
