Hooray!  So happy to get that off my plate.

Ahh, I see you did that.  Now, how about snappier names for
'reversepostorder' and 'postorderreverse'?  I can't remember which is
which, so I doubt anyone other than you can.

Idea: rename 'reversepostorder' (the well-behaved default) to
'parentdelta', since it simulates what we would get if revlog had
parent deltas now.  And rename 'postorderreverse' to 'experimental',
since that's exactly what it is: sometimes better, sometimes worse,
and unstable.
