Since c06eb45e85a7, mq saves the nodeid of the first applied patch to
cache/branchheads, which breaks the optimized cache handling introduced in
1808e27e1362. The problem is the revision being committed is appended to
mqrepo.applied after the commit succeeds, which means mqrepo._branchtags()
performs a regular update and write the first applied patch to the branch
cache.
One solution is to set a context variable _committingpatch on the mqrepo while
it is committing a patch and to take it in account when deciding to fast-path
mqrepo._branchtags(). Not really elegant but it works.
The changes to test-mq-caches.t reverse changes introduced by c06eb45e85a7. The
cache should not have been updated with mq records.
The changes to test-keyword.t are indirectly caused by c06eb45e85a7.

Notes:
- qpush still makes a slow path _branchtags() call when checking heads. Maybe
this can be optimized.
- be careful when merging this patch in default as secretcommit() was renamed
newcommit() right after the end of the code freeze.
test-mq-cache.t did apparently look at stale cache content.
Testing with different locking mechanism happened to update the cache more
frequently and thus caused a test failure.
The generation of cache files like tags.cache and branchheads.cache is not an
actual reflection of things changing in the whole of the .hg directory (like eg
a commit or a rebase or something) but instead these cache files are just part
of bookkeeping. As such its convienant to allow various clients to ignore file
events to do with these cache files which would otherwise cause a double
refresh. Eg one refresh might occur after a commit, but the act of refreshing
after the commit would cause Mercurial to generate a new branchheads.cache which
would then cause a second refresh, for clients.
However if these cache files are moved into a directory like eg .hg/cache/ then
GUI clients on OSX (and possibly other platforms) can happily ignore file events
in this cache directory.
Many tests fixed the commit date of their changesets at '1000000 0' or
similar. However testing with "Mon Jan 12 13:46:40 1970 +0000" is not
better than testing with "Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 +0000", which is
the default run-tests.py installs.
Removing the unnecessary flag removes some clutter and will hopefully
make it clearer what the tests are really trying to test. Some tests
did not even change their output when the dates were changed, in which
case the -d flag was truly irrelevant.
Dates used in sequence (such as '0 0', '1 0', etc...) were left alone
since they may make the test easier to understand.
