Converts large Mercurial repositories to Git/LFS significantly faster by integrating
the LFS conversion into the history export process.
Currently, converting large repositories requires two sequential, long-running steps:
1. Full history conversion (`hg` to `git`).
2. Full history rewrite/import (`git lfs import`).
For huge monorepos (100GiB+, 1M+ files), this sequence can take hours or days.
This commit introduces a new plugin that allows the repository to be converted *incrementally*
(JIT: Just-In-Time). The plugin identifies large files during the initial `hg` to `git`
conversion and immediately writes LFS pointers, eliminating the need for the second,
time-consuming history rewrite step.
Run the CI tests with both the earliest supported Python version and
the latest stable release.
The intent is to quickly notice when new features require adjusting
the oldest supported Python version and also detect when the latest
stable version breaks old code (as when 3.12 removed `imp` and we
witched to `importlib` in #311).
