revlog: add a fast method for getting a list of chunks

This moves _chunkraw into the loop. Doing that improves revlog decompression --
in particular, manifest decompression -- significantly. For a 20 MB manifest
which is the result of a > 40k delta chain, hg perfmanifest improves from 0.55
seconds to 0.49 seconds.
