svn_wc__node_*

count-progress.py is reporting 143 uses of svn_wc__node_* in my
working copy. A quick breakdown of these calls results in:

   8 node_get_base_rev
   9 node_get_changed_info
   1 node_get_changelist
   5 node_get_children
   2 node_get_commit_base_rev
   6 node_get_copyfrom_info
   2 node_get_depth
  33 node_get_kind
   2 node_get_lock_token
  10 node_get_repos_info
  23 node_get_url
   7 node_is_added
   3 node_is_file_external
   1 node_is_replaced
   1 node_is_status_absent
   9 node_is_status_deleted
   3 node_is_status_obstructed
   1 node_is_status_present
  12 node_walk_children

We are 14 entry_t uses away from "done" in libsvn_client. That means
the above calls are pretty close to the end-result.

The get_kind is quite believable, and should probably move to our
public API. Seems quite reasonable, along with Neels' changes to
create better consistency in its outputs.

The get_url concerns me a bit, since most states of a node don't
actually have a URL. They may have an *intended* URL after a commit.
I'm somewhat worried those get_url calls are mis-using or do not
properly understand the "this node doesn't have a URL" concept.
get_repos_info kind of falls into this area, too.

The walk_children is pretty obvious, and I definitely think we should
have such an API in our public header. In particular, provide that API
to users rather than specialized walk/editor mechanisms, and let
callers request the specific information they need.

Cheers,
