changegroup: sparsely populate fnodes

Previously, fnodes had a key and empty dict value for every element in
changedfiles. This is somewhat wasteful. Empty dicts in CPython consume
a lot more memory than you would expect - 280 bytes.

On mozilla-central, which has ~190,000 files/fnodes keys, the previous
loop populating fnodes allocated 91,924 KB of memory, most of that for
the empty dicts.

With this patch in place, our peak RSS during mozilla-central clone
drops:

before:  364,356 KB
after:   326,008 KB
delta:   -38,348 KB

When combined with the previous patch, total peak RSS decrease is now
190,116 KB.
