D3312: revlog: move shortest() to scmutil.shortesthexnodeidprefix() (API)

[indygreg (Gregory Szorc)]

  I haven't looked at the patch yet, but I also wrote something like this as part of storage refactors. IMO the shortest node logic has no business being on the generic revlog implementation. I never submitted that patch since removing filelog's inheritance of revlog worked around the problem for me.
