py3: whitelist more passing tests

I had some good success tonight with histedit
tests. test-histedit-fold.t is now low-hanging fruit: it is only
failing because the logic for setting environment variables in hook.py
is slightly busted. Specifically, hook.py line 142 should be making
sure it puts strings in the env dict, not bytes, to avoid b'' goo in
environment variables.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
