commands: update help for "unbundle"
Similar to the recent change to "bundle," this command no longer
just deals with "changegroup" data.

commands: update help for "bundle"
We now have a dedicated help topic to describe bundle specification
strings. Let's update `hg bundle`'s documentation to reflect its
existence.
While I was hear, I also tweaked some wording which I felt was out
of date and needed tweaking. Specifically, `hg bundle` no longer
just deals with "changegroup" data: it can also generate files
that have non-changegroup data.

help: document bundle specifications
I softly formalized the concept of a "bundle specification" a while
ago when I was working on clone bundles and stream clone bundles and
wanted a more robust way to define what exactly is in a bundle file.
The concept has existed for a while. Since it is part of the clone
bundles feature and exposed to the user via the "-t" argument to
`hg bundle`, it is something we need to support for the long haul.
After the 4.1 release, I heard a few people comment that they didn't
realize you could generate zstd bundles with `hg bundle`. I'm
partially to blame for not documenting it in bundle's docstring.
Additionally, I added a hacky, experimental feature for controlling
the compression level of bundles in 76104a4899ad. As the commit
message says, I went with a quick and dirty solution out of time
constraints. Furthermore, I wanted to eventually store this
configuration in the "bundlespec" so it could be made more flexible.
Given:
a) bundlespecs are here to stay
b) we don't have great documentation over what they are, despite being
a user-facing feature
c) the list of available compression engines and their behavior isn't
exposed
d) we need an extensible place to modify behavior of compression
engines
I want to move forward with formalizing bundlespecs as a user-facing
feature. This commit does that by introducing a "bundlespec" help
page. Leaning on the just-added compression engine documentation
and API, the topic also conveniently lists available compression
engines and details about them. This makes features like zstd
bundle compression more discoverable. e.g. you can now
`hg help -k zstd` and it lists the "bundlespec" topic.

util: document bundle compression
An upcoming patch will add support for documenting bundle
specifications in more detail. As part of this, we'd like to
enumerate available bundle compression formats. In order to do
this, we need to provide the help mechanism a dict of names
and objects with docstrings.
This patch adds docstrings to compengine.bundletype and adds
a function for retrieving a dict of them. The code is not yet
used.

tests: store ETag when using --headeronly
Previously, --headeronly would prevent --twice from working
because the ETag wasn't stored when --headeronly was used.
This feels like a bug. That feeling is reaffirmed by the fact
that this change doesn't regress any tests.

hgweb: extract path traversal checking into standalone function
A common exploit in web applications that access paths is to insert
path separator strings like ".." to try to get the server to serve up
files it shouldn't.
We have code for detecting this in staticfile(). A subsequent commit
will need to perform this test as well. Since this is security code,
let's factor the check so we don't have to reinvent the wheel.

tags: rename "head" to "node" where we don't care
Followup to 5eb4d206202b (tags: extract fnode retrieval into its own
function, 2017-03-28) in which the "for head in head" became "for head
in nodes".

manifest: update comment to be about bytearray
Looks like a leftover from 2a18e9e6ca43 (py3: use bytearray() instead
of array('c', ...) constructions, 2017-03-12).
