[Monotone-devel] Please review nvm.automate_get_roster

[Thomas Keller]

Please review the above branch. The branch name has not so much in
common with the actual implementation anymore, though:

* a new file_sizes table has been added which records the size
  in bytes of individual files
* two new automate commands have been added, get_file_size returns
  a single recorded file size, get_extended_manifest_of returns
  a format similar to the current roster format, but without the
  local node ids. Additionally, the format prints out the recorded
  file size for each file node
* migration code and tests have been added, some parts of the migration
  code were refactored / expanded
* documentation and NEWS / UPGRADE was updated as well

Since I did the migration pretty late in the process, I realized that
the put_file_sizes_for_revision() method which is used during the
migration could maybe used instead of saving the individual file sizes
on commit, but then again I thought it was cleaner (and faster) to not
have to iterate over the revision object again there.

Let me know what you think,
Thomas.
