config: add a function to insert non-file based, but overridable settings

This will be used in the next patch.

Until relatively recently (473510bf0575), there was no official way for
extensions to inject per-repo config data, so it probably makes sense that
`ui.setconfig()` items are sticky, and not affected by loading more config
files.  But that makes it cumbersome if the extension wants to allow the data it
might add to be overridden by any data in the local hgrc file.  The only thing I
could get to work was to load the local hgrc first, and then check if the source
for the config item that should be overridden was *not* the local hgrc file
name.  But that's brittle because in addition to the file name, the source
contains the line number, there are the usual '\' vs '/' platform differences,
etc.

"""send ui.log() data to a subprocess (EXPERIMENTAL)

This extension lets you specify a shell command per ui.log() event,
sending all remaining arguments to as environment variables to that command.

Positional arguments construct a log message, which is passed in the `MSG1`
environment variables. Each keyword argument is set as a `OPT_UPPERCASE_KEY`
variable (so the key is uppercased, and prefixed with `OPT_`). The original
event name is passed in the `EVENT` environment variable, and the process ID
of mercurial is given in `HGPID`.

So given a call `ui.log('foo', 'bar %s\n', 'baz', spam='eggs'), a script
configured for the `foo` event can expect an environment with `MSG1=bar baz`,
and `OPT_SPAM=eggs`.

Scripts are configured in the `[logtoprocess]` section, each key an event name.
For example::

  [logtoprocess]
  commandexception = echo "$MSG1" > /var/log/mercurial_exceptions.log

would log the warning message and traceback of any failed command dispatch.

Scripts are run asynchronously as detached daemon processes; mercurial will
not ensure that they exit cleanly.
