sshpeer: establish SSH connection before class instantiation
We want to move the handshake to before peers are created so
we can instantiate a different peer class depending on the
results of the handshake. This necessitates moving the SSH
process invocation to outside the peer class.
As part of the code move, some variables were renamed for
clarity. util.popen4() returns stdin, stdout, and stderr in
their typical file descriptor order. However, stdin and stdout
were being mapped to "pipeo" and "pipei" respectively. "o"
for "stdin" and "i" for "stdout" is a bit confusing. Although
it does make sense for "output" and "input" from the perspective
of the client. But in the context of the new function, it makes
sense to refer to these as their file descriptor names.
In addition, the last use of self._path disappeared, so we stop
setting that attribute and we can delete the redundant URL
parsing necessary to set it.

Valid URLs are of the form:: local/filesystem/path[#revision] file://local/filesystem/path[#revision] http://[user[:pass]@]host[:port]/[path][#revision] https://[user[:pass]@]host[:port]/[path][#revision] ssh://[user@]host[:port]/[path][#revision] Paths in the local filesystem can either point to Mercurial repositories or to bundle files (as created by :hg:`bundle` or :hg:`incoming --bundle`). See also :hg:`help paths`. An optional identifier after # indicates a particular branch, tag, or changeset to use from the remote repository. See also :hg:`help revisions`. Some features, such as pushing to http:// and https:// URLs are only possible if the feature is explicitly enabled on the remote Mercurial server. Note that the security of HTTPS URLs depends on proper configuration of web.cacerts. Some notes about using SSH with Mercurial: - SSH requires an accessible shell account on the destination machine and a copy of hg in the remote path or specified with as remotecmd. - path is relative to the remote user's home directory by default. Use an extra slash at the start of a path to specify an absolute path:: ssh://example.com//tmp/repository - Mercurial doesn't use its own compression via SSH; the right thing to do is to configure it in your ~/.ssh/config, e.g.:: Host *.mylocalnetwork.example.com Compression no Host * Compression yes Alternatively specify "ssh -C" as your ssh command in your configuration file or with the --ssh command line option. These URLs can all be stored in your configuration file with path aliases under the [paths] section like so:: [paths] alias1 = URL1 alias2 = URL2 ... You can then use the alias for any command that uses a URL (for example :hg:`pull alias1` will be treated as :hg:`pull URL1`). Two path aliases are special because they are used as defaults when you do not provide the URL to a command: default: When you create a repository with hg clone, the clone command saves the location of the source repository as the new repository's 'default' path. This is then used when you omit path from push- and pull-like commands (including incoming and outgoing). default-push: The push command will look for a path named 'default-push', and prefer it over 'default' if both are defined.
