json: implement {tags} template

Tags is pretty easy to implement. Let's start there.

The output is slightly different from `hg tags -Tjson`. For reference,
the CLI has the following output:

  [
   {
    "node": "e2049974f9a23176c2addb61d8f5b86e0d620490",
    "rev": 29880,
    "tag": "tip",
    "type": ""
   },
   ...
  ]

Our output has the format:

  {
    "node": "0aeb19ea57a6d223bacddda3871cb78f24b06510",
    "tags": [
      {
        "node": "e2049974f9a23176c2addb61d8f5b86e0d620490",
        "tag": "tag1",
        "date": [1427775457.0, 25200]
      },
      ...
    ]
  }

"rev" is omitted because it isn't a reliable identifier. We shouldn't
be exposing them in web APIs and giving the impression it remotely
resembles a stable identifier. Perhaps we could one day hide this behind
a config option (it might be useful to expose when running servers
locally).

The "type" of the tag isn't defined because this information isn't yet
exposed to the hgweb templater (it could be in a follow-up) and because
it is questionable whether different types should be exposed at all.
(Should the web interface really be exposing "local" tags?)

We use an object for the outer type instead of Array for a few reasons.
First, it is extensible. If we ever need to throw more global properties
into the output, we can do that without breaking backwards compatibility
(property additions should be backwards compatible). Second, uniformity
in web APIs is nice. Having everything return objects seems much saner than
a mix of array and object. Third, there are security issues with arrays
in older browsers. The JSON web services world almost never uses arrays
as the main type for this reason.

Another possibly controversial part about this patch is how dates are
defined. While JSON has a Date type, it is based on the JavaScript Date
type, which is widely considered a pile of garbage. It is a non-starter
for this reason.

Many of Mercurial's built-in date filters drop seconds resolution. So
that's a non-starter as well, since we want the API to be lossless where
possible. rfc3339date, rfc822date, isodatesec, and date are all lossless.
However, they each require the client to perform string parsing on top of
JSON decoding. While date parsing libraries are pretty ubiquitous, some
languages don't have them out of the box. However, pretty much every
programming language can deal with UNIX timestamps (which are just
integers or floats). So, we choose to use Mercurial's internal date
representation, which in JSON is modeled as float seconds since UNIX
epoch and an integer timezone offset from UTC (keep in mind
JavaScript/JSON models all "Numbers" as double prevision floating point
numbers, so there isn't a difference between ints and floats in JSON).

  $ hg init foo
  $ cd foo
  $ echo a > a
  $ hg ci -qAm a

Default queue:

  $ hg qqueue
  patches (active)

  $ echo b > a
  $ hg qnew -fgDU somestuff

Applied patches in default queue:

  $ hg qap
  somestuff

Try to change patch (create succeeds, switch fails):

  $ hg qqueue foo --create
  abort: new queue created, but cannot make active as patches are applied
  [255]

  $ hg qqueue
  foo
  patches (active)

Empty default queue:

  $ hg qpop
  popping somestuff
  patch queue now empty

Switch queue:

  $ hg qqueue foo
  $ hg qqueue
  foo (active)
  patches

List queues, quiet:

  $ hg qqueue --quiet
  foo
  patches

Fail creating queue with already existing name:

  $ hg qqueue --create foo
  abort: queue "foo" already exists
  [255]

  $ hg qqueue
  foo (active)
  patches

Create new queue for rename:

  $ hg qqueue --create bar

  $ hg qqueue
  bar (active)
  foo
  patches

Rename queue, same name:

  $ hg qqueue --rename bar
  abort: can't rename "bar" to its current name
  [255]

Rename queue to existing:

  $ hg qqueue --rename foo
  abort: queue "foo" already exists
  [255]

Rename queue:

  $ hg qqueue --rename buz

  $ hg qqueue
  buz (active)
  foo
  patches

Switch back to previous queue:

  $ hg qqueue foo
  $ hg qqueue --delete buz

  $ hg qqueue
  foo (active)
  patches

Create queue for purge:

  $ hg qqueue --create purge-me

  $ hg qqueue
  foo
  patches
  purge-me (active)

Create patch for purge:

  $ hg qnew patch-purge-me

  $ ls -1d .hg/patches-purge-me 2>/dev/null || true
  .hg/patches-purge-me

  $ hg qpop -a
  popping patch-purge-me
  patch queue now empty

Purge queue:

  $ hg qqueue foo
  $ hg qqueue --purge purge-me

  $ hg qqueue
  foo (active)
  patches

  $ ls -1d .hg/patches-purge-me 2>/dev/null || true

Unapplied patches:

  $ hg qun
  $ echo c > a
  $ hg qnew -fgDU otherstuff

Fail switching back:

  $ hg qqueue patches
  abort: new queue created, but cannot make active as patches are applied
  [255]

Fail deleting current:

  $ hg qqueue foo --delete
  abort: cannot delete currently active queue
  [255]

Switch back and delete foo:

  $ hg qpop -a
  popping otherstuff
  patch queue now empty

  $ hg qqueue patches
  $ hg qqueue foo --delete
  $ hg qqueue
  patches (active)

Tricky cases:

  $ hg qqueue store --create
  $ hg qnew journal

  $ hg qqueue
  patches
  store (active)

  $ hg qpop -a
  popping journal
  patch queue now empty

  $ hg qqueue patches
  $ hg qun

Invalid names:

  $ hg qqueue test/../../bar --create
  abort: invalid queue name, may not contain the characters ":\/."
  [255]

  $ hg qqueue . --create
