Hi all,

This patch both improves the speed of merge-base selection, and improves
its behavior with criss-cross merges.

In terms of speed, I've only improved the constant factors so far.  But
merely improving the constant factors changes my merge time on bzr.dev
from 12 seconds to 4 seconds.

A reimplementation of the minimal_common could conceivably scale with
the number of uncommon ancestors, and I plan to do so.

Aaron
