ui: pass ' ' to raw_input when prompting

This is a workaround for calling ui.prompt(...), typing some character then
hitting backspace which causes the entire line to delete rather than just the
one character. This was seen on Debian using gnome-terminal.

Python bug can be found here: http://bugs.python.org/issue12833

Setup:

create a little extension that has 3 side-effects:
1) ensure changelog data is not inlined
2) make revlog to use lazyparser
3) test that repo.lookup() works
1 and 2 are preconditions for the bug; 3 is the bug.

  >         tip2 = node.short(repo.lookup(tip1))

Test that new changesets are visible to repo.lookup():

  $ echo a >> a
  $ hg commit -m'one more commit to demonstrate the bug'
  new tip: 799ae3599e0e

  $ hg tip
