windows: insert file positioning call between reads and writes

fopen() and fdopen() have a unique-to-Windows requirement that
transitions between read and write operations in files opened
in modes r+, w+, and a+ perform a file positioning call
(fsetpos, fseek, or rewind) in between. While the MSDN docs don't
say what will happen if this is not done, observations reveal
that Python raises an IOError with errno 0. Furthermore, I
/think/ this behavior isn't deterministic. But I can reproduce
it reliably with subsequent patches applied that open revlogs
in a+ mode and perform both reads and writes.

This patch introduces a proxy class for file handles opened
in r+, w+, and a+ mode on Windows. The class intercepts calls
and audits whether a file positioning function has been called
between read and write operations. If not, a dummy, no-op seek
to the current file position is performed. This appears to be
sufficient to "trick" Windows into allowing transitions between
read and writes without raising errors.

Corrupt an hg repo with a pull started during an aborted commit
Create two repos, so that one of them can pull from the other one.

  $ hg init source
  $ cd source
  $ touch foo
  $ hg add foo
  $ hg ci -m 'add foo'
  $ hg clone . ../corrupted
  updating to branch default
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ echo >> foo
  $ hg ci -m 'change foo'

Add a hook to wait 5 seconds and then abort the commit

  $ cd ../corrupted
  $ echo "[hooks]" >> .hg/hgrc
  $ echo 'pretxncommit = sh -c "sleep 5; exit 1"' >> .hg/hgrc

start a commit...

  $ touch bar
  $ hg add bar
  $ hg ci -m 'add bar' &

... and start a pull while the commit is still running

  $ sleep 1
  $ hg pull ../source 2>/dev/null
  pulling from ../source
  transaction abort!
  rollback completed
  abort: pretxncommit hook exited with status 1
