Calling popoldest() on insert with cost auditing enabled introduces
significant overhead.

The primary reason for this overhead is that popoldest() needs to
walk the linked list to find the first non-empty node. When we
call popoldest() within a loop, this can become quadratic. The
performance impact is more pronounced on caches with large capacities.

This commit effectively inlines the popoldest() call into
_enforcecostlimit(). By doing so, we only do the backwards walk
to find the first empty node once. However, we still may still
perform this work on insert when the cache is near cost capacity.
So this is only a partial performance win.

Basic install::

$ make # see install targets
$ make install # do a system-wide install
$ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
$ hg # see help

Running without installing::

$ make local # build for inplace usage
$ ./hg --version # should show the latest version
