namespaces: generate template keyword when registering a namespace

For any namespace, we generate a template keyword. For example, given a
namespace 'babar', we automatically have the ability to use it in a template:

hg log -r . -T '{babars % "King: {babar}\n"}'

Furthermore, we only generate this keyword for a namespace if one doesn't
already exist. This is necessary for 'branches' and 'bookmarks' since both of
those have concepts of 'current' (something outside the namespace api) and also
allows extensions to override default behavior if desired.

class namespaces(object):
    """
    provides an interface to register a generic many-to-many mapping between
    some (namespaced) names and nodes. The goal here is to control the
    pollution of jamming things into tags or bookmarks (in extension-land) and
    to simplify internal bits of mercurial: log output, tab completion, etc.

    More precisely, we define a list of names (the namespace), a mapping of
    names to nodes, and a mapping from nodes to names. Each mapping
    returns a list of nodes.

    Furthermore, each name mapping will be passed a name to lookup which might
    not be in its domain. In this case, each method should return an empty list
    and not raise an error.

    We'll have a dictionary '_names' where each key is a namespace and
    its value is a dictionary of functions:
      'templatename': name to use for templating (usually the singular form
                      of the plural namespace name)
      'namemap': function that takes a name and returns a list of nodes
      'nodemap': function that takes a node and returns a list of names
