templatekw: add 'requires' flag to switch to exception-safe interface
The current templatekw interface, f(repo, ctx, templ, **args), is horrible
because it's quite easy to encounter TypeError, ValueError, etc. It's also
bad for Python 3 porting due to the **kwargs issue.
This patch introduces a flag to switch to new f(context, mapping) API seen
in templater functions. The requirement spec isn't verified (yet) because
context.resource() can gracefully raise a ResourceUnavailable exception,
but it's planned to be used as a filter in the help, such as "Revision
Keywords" (if 'ctx' in requires), "File Keywords" (if 'fctx' in requires),
etc.
showauthor() is ported to the new API as an example. 20 more follows.

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).
