bundle2: always advertise client support for stream parts Previously, enabling of stream clone over bundle2 was a server-side only change. And clients would only advertise bundle2 support for stream clones if an experimental config option was set. This situation wasn't forward compatible because in the future (when the feature is enabled on servers by default), an old client would send a request to the server but it wouldn't send its own bundle2 capability support for stream parts. Servers would have to infer that clients not sending this capability were old Mercurial clients that only sent the capability if the feature was explicitly enabled. Implicit and inferred behavior makes implementing servers hard. It's much better to be explicit about client features. We should either make the config option for bundle2 stream clones disable the feature client-side as well (so a server doesn't see a request from a client not advertising stream support). Or we should always advertise stream support if a client is willing to accept stream parts. Since I anticipating stabilizing stream clone support in bundle2 quickly, I think it's safe to always advertise client support in the bundle2 capabilities. So this commit changes things to do that. Because capabilities now vary between client and server, we had to create variations of the variable substitutions for those strings. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D1931
