We just follow the pattern that already exists. By default, 'svnadmin
setuuid' would bypass the hooks. (In generally, I think it is assumed that
anyone who can run 'svnadmin' on a repository directly can also modify its
hooks.) And then we add --use-pre-uuid-change-hook and
--use-post-uuid-change-hook options.

See 'svnadmin setrevprop' / svn_repos_fs_change_rev_prop3() and 'svnadmin
load' / svn_repos_load_fs3() for prior art.
