Handle input in Subversion's dumpfile format, version 3. This is the
format produced by "svnrdump dump" and "svnadmin dump --deltas", and
the main difference between v3 dumpfiles and the dumpfiles already
handled is that these can include nodes whose properties and text are
expressed relative to some other node.
To handle such nodes, we find which node the text and properties are
based on, handle its property changes, use the cat-blob command to
request the basis blob from the fast-import backend, use the
svndiff0_apply() helper to apply the text delta on the fly, writing
output to a temporary file, and then measure that postimage file's
length and write its content to the fast-import stream.
The temporary postimage file is shared between delta-using nodes to
avoid some file system overhead.
The svn-fe interface needs to be more complicated to accomodate the
backward flow of information from the fast-import backend to svn-fe.
The backflow fd is not needed when parsing streams without deltas,
though, so existing scripts using svn-fe on v2 dumps should
continue to work.
NEEDSWORK: generalize interface so caller sets the backflow fd, close
temporary file before exiting

Set up some plumbing: teach the svndump lib to pass a file descriptor
number to the fast_export lib, representing where cat-blob/ls
responses can be read from, and add a get_response_line helper
function to the fast_export lib to read a line from that file.
Unfortunately this means that svn-fe needs file descriptor 3 to be
redirected from somewhere (preferrably the cat-blob stream of a
fast-import backend); otherwise it will fail:
$ svndump <path> | svn-fe
fatal: cannot read from file descriptor 3: Bad file descriptor
For the moment, "svn-fe 3</dev/null" works as a workaround but it
will not work for very long. A fast-import backend that can retrieve
old commits is needed in order to be able to fulfill svn
"Node-copyfrom-rev" requests that refer to revs from a previous run.

svn-fe is young and some coming cleanups might involve backward
incompatible UI changes. Add some words of warning to the manual so
early adopters that are not following the project closely don't get
burned.

Those in the know would notice that dump file format version 2
means "svnadmin dump --no-deltas", but for the rest of us, an
explicit reminder is useful.

The svn-fe example does not litter the working directory with
.bin files any more (hoorah!).
The permissive error handling implies a known bug. We should
be flagging iffy input and, even if we continue, reporting it
on exit.

The svn-fe tool takes a Subversion dump file as input and produces
a fast-import stream as output. This can be useful as a low-level
tool in building other importers, or for debugging the vcs-svn
library.
make svn-fe
make svn-fe.1
to test.
