exchange: move narrow acl functionality into core
This function is called by the custom changegroup generation code
in the narrow extension. I want to move that changegroup code into
core. That means we need to move this function.
The code is kinda hacky in that assumes existence of REMOTE_USER,
which is only present on authenticated HTTP requests. I've added
a comment indicating that.

Create a repo, set the username to something more than 255 bytes, then run hg amend on it.
$ unset HGUSER
$ cat >> $HGRCPATH << EOF
> [ui]
> username = aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa <very.long.name@example.com>
> [extensions]
> amend =
> [experimental]

$ hg init tmpa
$ cd tmpa
$ echo a > a
$ hg add

$ hg commit -m "Initial commit"
$ echo a >> a
$ hg amend 2>&1 | egrep -v '^(\*\*| )'
transaction abort!
