There are various optimization we can do if we can estimate the size of delta
before actually spending CPU compressing them. So we add a attributed dedicated
to tracking that.

We only use it on Manifest because (1) it structure is quite stable across all
Mercurial repository so its compression ratio is fairly universal. This is the
revlog with most extreme delta (cf the sparse-revlog optimization).

This will be put to use in later changesets.

Right now the compression upper bound is set to 10. This is a fairly
conservative value (observed value is more around 3), but I prefer to be safe
while introducing the optimization principles. We can tune the optimization
threshold later.
