tests: proof test-stdio.py against buffer fill-up

With the previous code, it could in theory happen that the pipe / PTY buffer of
the child stdout / stderr fills up and the process never finishes.

To prevent that, we read all of the stream before waiting for the end of the
process. To ensure that the stream reaches EOF when the child finishes, we must
close the parent "copy" of the child stdout / stderr.

  $ hg init repo
  $ cd repo

  $ touch a.html b.html c.py d.py

  $ cat > frontend.sparse << EOF
  > [include]
  > *.html
  > EOF

  $ hg -q commit -A -m initial

  $ echo 1 > a.html
  $ echo 1 > c.py
  $ hg commit -m 'commit 1'

Enable sparse profile

  $ cat .hg/requires
  dotencode
  fncache
  generaldelta
  revlogv1
  sparserevlog
  store
  testonly-simplestore (reposimplestore !)

  $ hg debugsparse --config extensions.sparse= --enable-profile frontend.sparse
  $ ls -A
  .hg
  a.html
  b.html

Requirement for sparse added when sparse is enabled

  $ cat .hg/requires
  dotencode
  exp-sparse
  fncache
  generaldelta
  revlogv1
  sparserevlog
  store
  testonly-simplestore (reposimplestore !)

Client without sparse enabled reacts properly

  $ hg files
  abort: repository is using sparse feature but sparse is not enabled; enable the "sparse" extensions to access!
  [255]

Requirement for sparse is removed when sparse is disabled

  $ hg debugsparse --reset --config extensions.sparse=

  $ cat .hg/requires
  dotencode
  fncache
  generaldelta
  revlogv1
  sparserevlog
  store
  testonly-simplestore (reposimplestore !)

And client without sparse can access

  $ hg files
  a.html
  b.html
  c.py
  d.py
  frontend.sparse
