D11910: rhg: Skip reading the contents of ambiguous files in some cases

REVISION SUMMARY
  If the size of the file in the working directory does not match the length of
  the filelog data, we know its contents will be different and don’t need to
  read it.
  
  rhg still decodes the filelog revision, which is not needed in some cases.

REPOSITORY
