hgweb: allow defining Server response header for HTTP server
By default, the string contains the Python version. Server
operators may want to change this.
Because we like deterministic tests, we change the test harness
to always set this value to a known string. Various globs over
the server header have now been removed.
# no-check-commit because we add version_string()

tests: use $HTTP_DATE$ for Date header
Support for the $HTTP_DATE$ substitution was recently added. Let's
adopt it more widely.
We had to tweak the substitution to be case insensitive, since
HTTP headers are case insensitive. I also found a minor test
issue not globbing over the length of the Server response header.

debugcommands: introduce actions to perform deterministic reads
"readavailable" is useful as a debugging device to see what data is
available on a pipe. But the mechanism isn't deterministic because
what's available on a pipe is highly conditional on timing, system
load, OS behavior, etc. This makes it not suitable for tests.
We introduce "ereadline," "read," and "eread" for performing
deterministic I/O operations (at least on blocking file descriptors).
We stop short of converting existing consumers of "readavailable"
in tests because we're working out race conditions and deadlocks
on Windows. But the goal is to eventually move tests away from
"readavailable" to these new APIs.
