httppeer: don't accept very old media types (BC)
Versions of Mercurial older than 1.0 emitted the text/plain
and application/hg-changegroup media types in response to wire
protocol commands.
Way back in
8760d0c83b9b in 2005, the code validating these media
types was added, presumably for backwards compatibility.
0b245edec124
a short time before that commit changed things from text/plain and
application/hg-changegroup to application/mercurial-0.1 and
application/hg-0.1.
8760d0c83b9b seemed to indicate ("for now") that
the BC compatibility was temporary. But that code has lived until
this day.
It has been more than 10 years and nobody should be running pre 1.0
servers.
Pretty much the only risk to this is if there's a server somewhere
advertising the old media types or server software is interfering
and not letting Mercurial send the proper Content-Type header. I
think the chances are rare.
The wire protocol docs were created (by me) from reading existing
code. So the deletions don't constitute a spec change as much as
reflecting the reality of how things have been for years.
.. bc::
The HTTP client no longer accepts text/plain and
application/hg-changegroup Content-Type values as a valid Mercurial
command response. These should only be encountered on pre 1.0
Mercurial servers.

Mercurial supports a functional language for selecting a set of
files.
Like other file patterns, this pattern type is indicated by a prefix,
'set:'. The language supports a number of predicates which are joined
by infix operators. Parenthesis can be used for grouping.
Identifiers such as filenames or patterns must be quoted with single
or double quotes if they contain characters outside of
``[.*{}[]?/\_a-zA-Z0-9\x80-\xff]`` or if they match one of the
predefined predicates. This generally applies to file patterns other
than globs and arguments for predicates. Pattern prefixes such as
``path:`` may be specified without quoting.
Special characters can be used in quoted identifiers by escaping them,
e.g., ``\n`` is interpreted as a newline. To prevent them from being
interpreted, strings can be prefixed with ``r``, e.g. ``r'...'``.
See also :hg:`help patterns`.
Operators
=========
There is a single prefix operator:
``not x``
Files not in x. Short form is ``! x``.
These are the supported infix operators:
``x and y``
The intersection of files in x and y. Short form is ``x & y``.
``x or y``
The union of files in x and y. There are two alternative short
forms: ``x | y`` and ``x + y``.
``x - y``
Files in x but not in y.
Predicates

The following predicates are supported:

Examples
========
Some sample queries:
- Show status of files that appear to be binary in the working directory::
hg status -A "set:binary()"
- Forget files that are in .hgignore but are already tracked::
hg forget "set:hgignore() and not ignored()"
- Find text files that contain a string::
hg files "set:grep(magic) and not binary()"
- Find C files in a non-standard encoding::
hg files "set:**.c and not encoding('UTF-8')"
- Revert copies of large binary files::
hg revert "set:copied() and binary() and size('>1M')"
- Revert files that were added to the working directory::
hg revert "set:revs('wdir()', added())"
- Remove files listed in foo.lst that contain the letter a or b::
hg remove "set: listfile:foo.lst and (**a* or **b*)"
