hg: make cachedlocalrepo filter newly cached repo as same as initial one

Before this patch, 'cachedlocalrepo' always caches "visible" repoview
object, because 'hg.repository()' always returns "visible" repoview
object and 'cachedlocalrepo' uses it without any additional
processing.

If the client of 'cachedlocalrepo' wants "served" repoview, some
objects to be cached are discarded unintentionally.

    1. 'cachedlocalrepo' newly caches "visible" repoview object
       (call it VIEW1)

    2. 'cachedlocalrepo' returns VIEW1 to the client of it

    3. the client gets "served" repoview object by 'filtered("served")'
       on VIEW1 (call this "served" repoview VIEW2)

    4. accessing to 'repo.changelog' implies:
       - instantiation of changelog via 'localrepository.changelog'
       - instantiation of "filtered changelog" via 'repoview.changelog'

    5. "filtered changelog" above is cached in VIEW2

    6. VIEW2 is discarded after processing, because there is no
       reference to it

    7. 'cachedlocalrepo' returns VIEW1 cached at (1) above to the
       client at next 'fetch()'

    8. 'filtered("served")' on VIEW1 at the client side creates new
       "served" repoview again, because VIEW1 is "visible"
       (call this new "served" repoview VIEW3)

    9. accessing to 'repo.changelog' implies instantiation of filtered
       changelog again, because "filtered changelog" is cached in
       VIEW2 at (5), but not in VIEW3 currently used

    10. (go to (7) above)

As described above, "served" repoview object and "filtered changelog"
cached in it are discarded always, even if the repository itself
hasn't been changed since last access.

For example, in the case of 'hgweb_mod.hgweb', "newly caching" occurs,
when:

  - all cached objects are already assigned to another threads, or
    (in this case, repoview is created in 'cachedlocalrepo.copy()')

  - stat of '00changelog.i' is changed from last access
    (in this case, repoview is created in 'cachedlocalrepo.fetch()')

    once changes are pushed via HTTP, this always occurs.

The root cause of this inefficiency is that 'cachedlocalrepo' always
caches "visible" repoview object, even if the client of it wants
another view.

This patch makes 'cachedlocalrepo' filter newly cached repo as same as
initial one. It is assumed that initial repoview object should be
already filtered by expected view.

After this patch:

  - 'filtered("served")' on VIEW1 at (3)/(7) above returns VIEW1
    itself, because VIEW1 is now "served", and

  - VIEW2 and VIEW3 equal VIEW1

  - therefore, "filtered changelog" is cached in VIEW1, and reused
    intentionally
