json: implement {shortlog} and {changelog} templates

These are the same dispatch function under the hood. The only difference
is the default number of entries to render and the template to use. So
it makes sense to use a shared template.

Format for {changelistentry} is similar to {changeset}. However, there
are differences to argument names and their values preventing us from
(easily) using the same template. (Perhaps there is room to consolidate
the templates as a follow-up.)

We're currently not recording some data in {changelistentry} that exists
in {changeset}. This includes the branch name. This should be added in
a follow-up. For now, something is better than nothing.

Put here definitions of blacklists for run-tests.py

Create a file per blacklist. Each file should list the names of tests that you
want to be skipped.
File names are meant to be used as targets for run-tests.py --blacklist
option.
Lines starting with # are ignored. White spaces are stripped.

e.g. if you create a blacklist/example file containing:
 test-hgrc
 # some comment
 test-help
then calling "run-tests.py --blacklist blacklists/example" will exclude
test-hgrc and test-help from the list of tests to run.
