contrib: update python dependencies on Windows Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D12559

contrib: add a hint if the Windows dependency MSI is already installed In the past, I've gotten confused when the script failed on seemingly random python installs (and thus the py3.8 install was commented out from the last time this happened to me, which has been reverted here). This particular error code means the package was already installed. For python, it means the major and minor version are the same, but the micro version may differ. In practice, ignoring the python installation failure will cause the pip installation that happens next to fail, because python.exe for that version is somewhere else on the system. This could probably be fixed by running py.exe with the major and minor version, but that is skipped during the install for some reason. I didn't feel like over complicating this though, and at least there's a better hint when the problem occurs. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D12560

packaging: fix the type hint on the download_entry function Flagged by PyCharm. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D12571

packaging: drop python27 references from the Windows instructions I also diffed these two files and eliminated cosmetic differences to make it easier to ensure both are in alignment. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D12570

git: un-byteify the `mode` argument for the builtin `open()` I guess this was assuming `pycompat.open` was imported, but it's not here or elsewhere in the git extension. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D12568

git: adapt to some recent dirstate API changes There are still old methods like add() and drop(). I don't see anything that looks equivalent, so there's likely more work to do. But this allows diff and commit to work again on the simple webpage repo for thg. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D12567

windows: disable pager when packaged with py2exe With Windows and py3, all output that got directed to the pager was lost. It can be worked around by the user piping to `more`, but that's easy to forget, and can be dangerous if `hg diff` or similar incorrectly shows no changes. The problem appears to be the new WindowsConsoleIO in py3.6[1]. We've worked around it with PyOxidizer by setting the `Py_LegacyWindowsStdioFlag` interpreter option, and worked around it with `hg.bat` and `exewrapper.c` by internally setting `PYTHONLEGACYWINDOWSSTDIO=1`. Unfortunately, py2exe doesn't appear to be able to set the interpreter option, and somehow seems to also ignore the environment variable. The latter isn't a good fix anyway, since setting it in the environment would affect other python programs too. We can't install a global config for this because a config closer to the user (e.g. from before pager was turned on by default) can override it.

resourceutil: force filesystem access to resources when using py2exe I don't know why it doesn't work, but it avoids this fatal error on startup: > hg debugshell Traceback (most recent call last): File "hg", line 58, in <module> File "mercurial\dispatch.pyc", line 143, in run File "mercurial\dispatch.pyc", line 232, in dispatch File "mercurial\dispatch.pyc", line 254, in _rundispatch File "mercurial\ui.pyc", line 316, in load File "mercurial\rcutil.pyc", line 98, in rccomponents File "mercurial\rcutil.pyc", line 68, in default_rc_resources File "mercurial\utils\resourceutil.pyc", line 102, in contents File "<frozen zipimport>", line 775, in contents AssertionError I assume the py2 version of py2exe never hit this because `importlib.resources` failed to import.
