hgweb: remove support for POST form data (BC)

Previously, we called out to cgi.parse(), which for POST requests
parsed multipart/form-data and application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Type requests for form data, combined it with query string
parameters, returned a union of the values.

As far as I know, nothing in Mercurial actually uses this mechanism
to submit data to the HTTP server. The wire protocol has its own
mechanism for passing parameters. And the web interface only does
GET requests. Removing support for parsing POST data doesn't break
any tests.

Another reason to not like this feature is that cgi.parse() may
modify the QUERY_STRING environment variable as a side-effect.
In addition, it merges both POST data and the query string into
one data structure. This prevents consumers from knowing whether
a variable came from the query string or POST data. That can matter
for some operations.

I suspect we use cgi.parse() because back when this code was
initially implemented, it was the function that was readily
available. In other words, I don't think there was conscious
choice to support POST data: we just got it because cgi.parse()
supported it.

Since nothing uses the feature and it is untested, let's remove
support for parsing POST form data. We can add it back in easily
enough if we need it in the future.

.. bc::

   Hgweb no longer reads form data in POST requests from
   multipart/form-data and application/x-www-form-urlencoded
   requests. Arguments should be specified as URL path components
   or in the query string in the URL instead.

editor
------

  $ cat >> pushbuffer.py <<EOF
  > def reposetup(ui, repo):
  >     repo.ui.pushbuffer(subproc=True)
  > EOF

  $ chg init editor
  $ cd editor

by default, system() should be redirected to the client:

  $ touch foo
  $ CHGDEBUG= HGEDITOR=cat chg ci -Am channeled --edit 2>&1 \
  > | egrep "HG:|run 'cat"
  chg: debug: * run 'cat "*"' at '$TESTTMP/editor' (glob)
  HG: Enter commit message.  Lines beginning with 'HG:' are removed.
  HG: Leave message empty to abort commit.
  HG: --
  HG: user: test
  HG: branch 'default'
  HG: added foo

but no redirection should be made if output is captured:

  $ touch bar
  $ CHGDEBUG= HGEDITOR=cat chg ci -Am bufferred --edit \
  > --config extensions.pushbuffer="$TESTTMP/pushbuffer.py" 2>&1 \
  > | egrep "HG:|run 'cat"
  [1]

check that commit commands succeeded:

  $ hg log -T '{rev}:{desc}\n'
  1:bufferred
  0:channeled

  $ cd ..

pager
-----

  $ cat >> fakepager.py <<EOF
  > import sys
  > for line in sys.stdin:
  >     sys.stdout.write('paged! %r\n' % line)
  > EOF

enable pager extension globally, but spawns the master server with no tty:

  $ chg init pager
  $ cd pager
  $ cat >> $HGRCPATH <<EOF
  > [extensions]
  > pager =
  > [pager]
  > pager = $PYTHON $TESTTMP/fakepager.py
  > EOF
  $ chg version > /dev/null
  $ touch foo
  $ chg ci -qAm foo

pager should be enabled if the attached client has a tty:

  $ chg log -l1 -q --config ui.formatted=True
  paged! '0:1f7b0de80e11\n'
  $ chg log -l1 -q --config ui.formatted=False
  0:1f7b0de80e11

chg waits for pager if runcommand raises

  $ cat > $TESTTMP/crash.py <<EOF
  > from mercurial import registrar
  > cmdtable = {}
  > command = registrar.command(cmdtable)
  > @command(b'crash')
  > def pagercrash(ui, repo, *pats, **opts):
  >     ui.write('going to crash\n')
  >     raise Exception('.')
  > EOF

  $ cat > $TESTTMP/fakepager.py <<EOF
  > from __future__ import absolute_import
  > import sys
  > import time
  > for line in iter(sys.stdin.readline, ''):
  >     if 'crash' in line: # only interested in lines containing 'crash'
  >         # if chg exits when pager is sleeping (incorrectly), the output
  >         # will be captured by the next test case
  >         time.sleep(1)
  >         sys.stdout.write('crash-pager: %s' % line)
  > EOF

  $ cat >> .hg/hgrc <<EOF
  > [extensions]
  > crash = $TESTTMP/crash.py
  > EOF

  $ chg crash --pager=on --config ui.formatted=True 2>/dev/null
  crash-pager: going to crash

  $ cd ..

server lifecycle
----------------

chg server should be restarted on code change, and old server will shut down
automatically. In this test, we use the following time parameters:

 - "sleep 1" to make mtime different
 - "sleep 2" to notice mtime change (polling interval is 1 sec)

set up repository with an extension:

  $ chg init extreload
  $ cd extreload
  $ touch dummyext.py
  $ cat <<EOF >> .hg/hgrc
  > [extensions]
  > dummyext = dummyext.py
  > EOF

isolate socket directory for stable result:

  $ OLDCHGSOCKNAME=$CHGSOCKNAME
  $ mkdir chgsock
  $ CHGSOCKNAME=`pwd`/chgsock/server

warm up server:

  $ CHGDEBUG= chg log 2>&1 | egrep 'instruction|start'
  chg: debug: * start cmdserver at $TESTTMP/extreload/chgsock/server.* (glob)

new server should be started if extension modified:

  $ sleep 1
  $ touch dummyext.py
  $ CHGDEBUG= chg log 2>&1 | egrep 'instruction|start'
  chg: debug: * instruction: unlink $TESTTMP/extreload/chgsock/server-* (glob)
  chg: debug: * instruction: reconnect (glob)
  chg: debug: * start cmdserver at $TESTTMP/extreload/chgsock/server.* (glob)

old server will shut down, while new server should still be reachable:

  $ sleep 2
  $ CHGDEBUG= chg log 2>&1 | (egrep 'instruction|start' || true)

socket file should never be unlinked by old server:
(simulates unowned socket by updating mtime, which makes sure server exits
at polling cycle)

  $ ls chgsock/server-*
  chgsock/server-* (glob)
  $ touch chgsock/server-*
  $ sleep 2
  $ ls chgsock/server-*
  chgsock/server-* (glob)

since no server is reachable from socket file, new server should be started:
(this test makes sure that old server shut down automatically)

  $ CHGDEBUG= chg log 2>&1 | egrep 'instruction|start'
  chg: debug: * start cmdserver at $TESTTMP/extreload/chgsock/server.* (glob)

shut down servers and restore environment:

  $ rm -R chgsock
  $ CHGSOCKNAME=$OLDCHGSOCKNAME
  $ cd ..
