* `phases.registernew` now takes a set of revisions instead of a list
of nodes. `phases.advanceboundary` takes an optional set of revisions
in addition to the list of nodes. The corresponeding members of the

* The `addgroup` member of `revlog` classes no longer keeps a list of
all found nodes. It now returns True iff a node was found in the group.
An optional callback for duplicated nodes can be used by callers to keep
track of all nodes themselve.
* The `_chaininfocache` of `revlog` classes has been changed from a dict
to a LRU cache.
