discovery: introduce a obshash1 function using fm1 during hashing (issue4587)

The 'fm0' serialisation translate float to text. This give different result
between python2.6 and python2.7 (because python2.7 got smarter). The 'fm1' is
all binary and expected to be stable so we introduce the ability to do the
discovery using hash computed with 'fm1' serialisation.

We use a new wireprotocol version (Partly because I'm too lazy to check how to add an
argument to the existing one) and capabilities).

Support in simple4server is will come in the next changeset.

=============================
Mutable History For Mercurial
=============================

This package supplies the ``evolve`` extension for Mercurial, which
provides several commands to mutate history and deal with the
resulting issues.

It also:

    - enables the "changeset obsolescence" feature of Mercurial
    - issues several warning messages when trouble appears in your repository

**This extension is experimental and not yet meant for production.**

You can enable it by adding the line below to the ``extensions``
section of your hgrc::

    evolve = PATH/TO/mutable-history/hgext/evolve.py

We recommend reading the documentation first. An online version is
available here:

    http://evolution.experimentalworks.net/doc/

Or see the ``doc/`` directory for a local copy.

Bugs are to be reported on the mercurial's bug tracker: http://bz.selenic.com/
Use the the "evolution" component.

Please use the patchbomb extension to send email to mercurial devel. Please
make sure to use the evolve-ext flag when doing so. You can use a command like
this:

    hg email --to [e-mail] --flag evolve-ext --rev '<your patches>'
