merge: replace magic strings with NAMED_CONSTANTS (API) .. api:: `mercurial.hg.update*` and `mercurial.merge.update` now expect a value from a set of NAMED_CONSTANTS (`merge.UPDATECHECK_*` constants) rather than a collection of magic strings. As of now, the values are the same, but code should be prepared for these values to change in the future. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D6877

Our full contribution guidelines are in our wiki, please see:

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
