hg: use command executor for wire protocol commands
As part of this, I realized that some uses of lookup in a loop
could be converted to use a batch request. But I didn't change
behavior and left in a todo to track potentially changing this.

discovery: use command executor interface
We're trying to port all wire protocol code to use the new
interface so we can implement wire protocol version 2 clients.

wireproto: convert legacy commands to command executor
Calls to the legacy commands "changegroup" and "changegroupsubset" have
been ported to the new command executor interface.
Because we always pass arguments by name and not position, some
inconsistent names throughout the code base have been unified.
As part of this change, we no longer had any remaining callers
of the legacy command methods {between, branches, changegroup,
changegroupsubset}. So, these interfaces/methods have been dropped
from peer interfaces. We still have an interface declaring these
methods. But that interface is implemented on the concrete peer
types and isn't part of the generic peer interface. (The
implementations of the command executor continue to call these
methods.)
The ultimate goal is to remove the per-command methods from the
generic peer interface: the only interface-conforming way to
call a command will be with the new executor API. At some point,
we may want to move the methods outside of the peer classes and
change the executor implementations to not call methods directly
on a peer instance.

wireproto: remove iterbatch() from peer interface (API)
Good riddance.
Some tests have been ported to the new API. This probably should
have been done in earlier commits. But duplicating the test coverage
would have been difficult. It was easier this way.
.. api::
The wire protocol peer's ``iterbatch()`` for bulk executing commands
has been remove.d Use ``peer.commandexecutor()`` instead.

largefiles: use command executor for batch operation
This is the only other user of iterbatch() in core.
Tests changed because the new command executor is smart enough
to not send a "batch" command over the wire if only 1 command
was requested.
There is still coverage for the "batch" command in this test
though.

wireproto: implement batching on peer executor interface
This is a bit more complicated than non-batch requests because we
need to buffer sends until the last request arrives *and* we need
to support resolving futures as data arrives from the remote.
In a classical concurrent.futures executor model, the future
"starts" as soon as it is submitted. However, we have nothing to
start until the last command is submitted.
If we did nothing, calling result() would deadlock, since the future
hasn't "started." So in the case where we queue the command, we return
a special future type whose result() will trigger sendcommands().
This eliminates the deadlock potential. It also serves as a check
against callers who may be calling result() prematurely, as it will
prevent any subsequent callcommands() from working. This behavior
is slightly annoying and a bit restrictive. But it's the world
that half duplex connections forces on us.
In order to support streaming responses, we were previously using
a generator. But with a futures-based API, we're using futures
and not generators. So in order to get streaming, we need a
background thread to read data from the server.
The approach taken in this patch is to leverage the ThreadPoolExecutor
from concurrent.futures for managing a background thread. We create
an executor and future that resolves when all response data is
processed (or an error occurs). When exiting the context manager,
we wait on that background reading before returning.
I was hoping we could manually spin up a threading.Thread and this
would be simple. But I ran into a few deadlocks when implementing.
After looking at the source code to concurrent.futures, I figured
it would just be easier to use a ThreadPoolExecutor than implement
all the code needed to manually manage a thread.
To prove this works, a use of the batch API in discovery has been
updated.
