evolve: add pre-check logic for content-divergence in rewriteutil.precheck()
For now, pre-check will abort if rewriting a rev create divergence (and
config experimental.evolution.allowdivergence is not set to True).
But this behaviour can be improved where instead of abort maybe we
can confirm the user to either proceed with divergence or some other
options depends on what command user is running.
Changes in test file are used to overrides the pre-check for testing
purpose (using experimental.evolution.allowdivergence=yes).
Topic Extension
================
This packages also provides the ``topic`` experiment in an independent
extension. It implements a new experimental concept to provide lightweight
feature branches for the mutable parts of the history. The experiments is still
at an early stage and have significant usability and performance issues when
enabled.
