making the "rXXXX" convention official

Anyone mind if I tweak 'svn log' output to print

   r7673 | jszakmeister | 2003-11-07 16:35:54 ... | ...

instead of

   rev 7673: jszakmeister | 2003-11-07 16:35:54 ... | ...

We all seem to have settled into the "rXXXX" convention pretty well,
judging from emails and the issue tracker. It's an elegant shorthand
that's good for regexp matching, and it has no spaces, hence is never
broken across lines.

If 'svn log' output uses it, that will help new users fall into the
same convention faster. Also, we'll save three characters of width.

(I'd also adjust tools/dev/svn-dev.el:svn-log-msg-boundary-regexp to
match the new convention. I didn't see any other tools that needed
adjusting, but let me know if I missed any.)
