gitweb: provide links to branches, tags and bookmarks by name
This is adapted from
cd842821db2c, that was added to paper for 3.5 release.
It adds another way to refer to branches, tags and bookmarks in urls: by name.
It's still possible to navigate to a specific changeset hash, but now you can
get more descriptive urls straight from /summary page, for example.
branchentry template (and so the whole branches table on /summary and
/branches) lost the column that had a plain changeset hash, because tags and
bookmarks don't have this column and also because there is already a way to
address branch by its changeset hash (changeset link just next to it). Maybe we
can instead bring this column with a plain changeset hash to tags and
bookmarks, but this, more terse, new look feels fine.
this structure seems to tickle a bug in bundle's search for
changesets, so first we have to recreate it

setup test repo1

adding foo.txt
$ mkrev 1
rev 1
first branch
$ mkrev 2
rev 2
$ mkrev 3
rev 3
back to rev 1 to create second branch
$ hg up -r1
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ mkrev 4
rev 4
$ mkrev 5
rev 5
merge first branch to second branch
$ hg up -C -r5
0 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ HGMERGE=internal:local hg merge
0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
(branch merge, don't forget to commit)
$ echo "merge rev 5, rev 3" > foo.txt
$ hg ci -m"merge first branch to second branch"
one more commit following the merge
$ mkrev 7
rev 7
back to "second branch" to make another head
$ hg up -r5
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ mkrev 8
rev 8
the story so far
$ hg log -G --template "{rev}\n"

check that "hg outgoing" really does the right thing
sanity check of outgoing: expect revs 4 5 6 7 8
$ hg clone -r3 . ../repo2
adding changesets
adding manifests
adding file changes
added 4 changesets with 4 changes to 1 files
updating to branch default
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
this should (and does) report 5 outgoing revisions: 4 5 6 7 8
$ hg outgoing --template "{rev}\n" ../repo2
comparing with ../repo2
searching for changes

test bundle (destination repo): expect 5 revisions
this should bundle the same 5 revisions that outgoing reported, but it
actually bundles 7
$ hg bundle foo.bundle ../repo2
searching for changes
5 changesets found
test bundle (base revision): expect 5 revisions
this should (and does) give exactly the same result as bundle
with a destination repo... i.e. it's wrong too
$ hg bundle --base 3 foo.bundle
5 changesets found
$ cd ..
