py3: listify filter() to call len() on it Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5354

loggingutil: document openlogfile() This function will be used later for command-server logging.

loggingutil: extract openlogfile() and proxylogger to new module This module isn't placed under the "utils" package since it needs "ui" to process things. It's called "loggingutil", not "logutil" because the word "log" is too obscure in our codebase.

blackbox: pass in options to _openlogfile() as arguments This prepares for extracting utility function from the blackbox module.

blackbox: just try writing to repo.vfs and update lastlogger on success This is simpler and more robust. Before, an empty ".hg" directory would be created if it's removed after checking vfs.isdir('.').

vfs: add option to not create parent directories implicitly In blackbox, we don't want to create a ".hg" directory by mistake. This provides a race-safe option to achieve that.

repo: add a `wcachevfs` to access the `.hg/wcache/` directory This wvfs will allow us to migrate various cache to the new `wcache` directory. Helping with cache issues with "share".

cache: create `wcache` directory at init time The cache directory will be needed very quickly, so it seems simpler to create it early to make sure it has the same owner and permission than the other directory in the repository.
