Rely on fast-import for information about previous revs.
This requires always setting up backward flow of information, even for
v2 dumps. On the plus side, it simplifies the code by quite a bit and
opens the door to further simplifications.

Restrict the repo_tree API to functions that are actually needed.
- decouple reading the mode and content of dirents from other
operations.
- remove repo_modify_path. It is only used to read the mode from
dirents.
- remove the ability to use repo_read_mode on a missing path. The
existing code only errors out in that case, anyway.

The repo_tree structure remembers, for each path in each revision, a
mode (regular file, executable, symlink, or directory) and content
(blob mark or directory structure). Maintaining a second copy of all
this information when it's already in the target repository is
wasteful, it does not persist between svn-fe invocations, and most
importantly, there is no convenient way to transfer it from one
machine to another. So it would be nice to get rid of it.
As a first step, let's change the repo_tree API to match fast-import's
read commands more closely. Currently to read the mode for a path,
one uses
repo_modify_path(path, new_mode, new_content);
which changes the mode and content as a side effect. There is no
function to read the content at a path; add one.

There are two functions to change the staged content for a path in the
svn importer's active commit: repo_replace, which changes the text and
returns the mode, and repo_modify, which changes the text and mode and
returns nothing.
Worse, there are more subtle differences:
- A mark of 0 passed to repo_modify means "use the existing content".
repo_replace uses it as mark :0 and produces a corrupt stream.
- When passed a path that is not part of the active commit,
repo_replace returns without doing anything. repo_modify
transparently adds a new directory entry.
Get rid of both and introduce a new function with the best features of
both: repo_modify_path modifies the mode, content, or both for a path,
depending on which arguments are zero. If no such dirent already
exists, it does nothing and reports the error by returning 0.
Otherwise, the return value is the resulting mode.

repo_tree maintains the exporter's state and provides a facility to to
call fast_export, which writes objects to stdout suitable for
consumption by fast-import.
The exported functions roughly correspond to Subversion FS operations.
. repo_add, repo_modify, repo_copy, repo_replace, and repo_delete
update the current commit, based roughly on the corresponding
Subversion FS operation.
. repo_commit calls out to fast_export to write the current commit to
the fast-import stream in stdout.
. repo_diff is used by the fast_export module to write the changes
for a commit.
. repo_reset erases the exporter's state, so valgrind can be happy.
[rr: squelched compiler warnings]
[jn: removed support for maintaining state on-disk, though we may
want to add it back later]
