destutil: show message about other branch heads, even if on a closed head Before this patch, bare "hg update" displays message below, if there is at least one non-closed branch head other than current parent: 1. 'XX other heads for branch "BRANCH"' message, if current parent is on a non-closed branch head This suggests user to invoke "hg heads" or so for merging them. 2. no message, if current parent is on a closed branch head At this patch, bare "hg update" might choose closed branch head as update destination, and it causes this situation easily. 3. no message, otherwise (= current parent isn't on any branch head) 'XX other heads for branch "BRANCH"' should be displayed also in #2 case above, because user might overlook other non-closed branch heads. This patch gets a list of all branch heads regardless of closed-ness of it, and uses it (= 'allheads') to distinguish #1/#2 from #3 above.
