I've updated the patch to use svnadmin hotcopy instead of a normal tree
copy. This is now the default for both FSFS and BDB repositories, as long as
the test doesn't require a repos with a new UUID.

Performance is still similar as the treecopy version.

thanks for your input.

Lieven.

[[[
Improve the performance of the python tests:
 1. Create the test repos with svnadmin hotcopy instead of
    svnadmin dump|svnadmin load.
 2. Check out a pristine working copy once, and copy+relocate it to
    the test working copy.

* subversion/tests/cmdline/svntest/actions.py
  (guarantee_greek_repository): checkout a pristine working copy.
  (make_repo_and_wc): instead of checking out the pristine repos,
   make a copy of the pristine working copy and relocate it.

* subversion/tests/cmdline/svntest/main.py
  (pristine_wc_dir): new global
  (copy_repos): when a test doesn't want a repos with a unique UUID,
   do a hotcopy of the pristine repos.
