requires: re-use vfs.tryread for simplicity
Avoids calling `set` twice or having to re-raise an exception and implements the routine with a single return expression.
$ hg init a
$ cd a
$ touch a; hg commit -qAm_
$ hg bookmark $(for i in $($TESTDIR/seq.py 0 20); do echo b$i; done)
$ hg clone . ../b -q
$ cd ../b
Checking that when lookup multiple bookmarks in one go, if one of them
fails (thus causing the sshpeer to be stopped), the errors from the
further lookups don't result in tracebacks.
$ hg pull -r b0 -r nosuchbookmark $(for i in $($TESTDIR/seq.py 1 20); do echo -r b$i; done) ssh://user@dummy/$(pwd)/../a
