The schema change to mergeinfo_changed as already discussed, it will be
same as 'mergeinfo' with just
recording fresh merges on a commit alone recorded on a mergeinfo_changed
table.

The purpose of the API is to give a 1-1 corresponding lists
commit_rangelist of type apr_array_header_t *(comprising
svn_merge_range_t* elements)
merge_ranges_list of type apr_array_header_t *(comprising
apr_array_header_t* elements, each such element's list contains
svn_merge_range_t *)

Caller subversion/libsvn_client/merge.c filter_reflected_revisions does
a peg rev lookup and calls the API with relevant paths and revisions.

Thanks for the review
