sparse: require [section] in sparse config files (BC) Previously, [include] was implicit and pattern lines before a [section] were added to includes. Because the format may change in the future and explicit behavior, well, more explicit, this commit changes the config parser to reject pattern lines that don't occur in a [section].

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).
