convert/svn: delegate to svn bindings if HTTP probe fails
convert extension tries to guess the remote repository type with HTTP probes.
Unfortunately, it does not handle authentication or HTTPS handshakes, so regular
svn repositories may be excluded. Instead, when a non-404 error is retrieved,
we keep trying with the svn bindings. The drawback is missing svn bindings will
make the conversion to fail even for non-svn targets. This can be avoided with
--source.

# In the merge below, the file "foo" has the same contents in both
# parents, but if we look at the file-level history, we'll notice that
# the version in p1 is an ancestor of the version in p2. This test
# makes sure that we'll use the version from p2 in the manifest of the
# merge revision.
