extensions: add unwrapfunction to undo wrapfunction

Before this patch, we don't have a safe way to undo a wrapfunction because
other extensions may wrap the same function and calling setattr will undo
them accidentally.

This patch adds an "unwrapfunction" to address the issue. It removes the
wrapper from the wrapper chain, and re-wraps everything, which is not the
most efficient but short and easy to understand. We can revisit the code
if we have perf issues with long chains.

The "undo" feature is useful in cases like wrapping a function just in a
scope. Like, having a "select" command to interactively (using arrow keys)
select content from some output (ex. smartlog). It could wrap "ui.label" to
extract interesting texts just in the "select" command.

  $ hg init a
  $ cd a
  $ touch empty1
  $ hg add empty1
  $ hg commit -m 'add empty1'

  $ touch empty2
  $ hg add empty2
  $ hg commit -m 'add empty2'

Before changeset 05257fd28591, we didn't notice the
empty file that came from rev 1:

  $ hg status
  M empty2
  $ hg commit -m merge
  $ hg manifest --debug tip
  b80de5d138758541c5f05265ad144ab9fa86d1db 644   empty1

  b80de5d138758541c5f05265ad144ab9fa86d1db 644   empty3

  $ cd ..
