interfaces: introduce and use a protocol class for the `charencoding` module
See
f2832de2a46c for details when this was done for the `bdiff` module.
This lets us dump the hack where the `pure` implementation was imported during
the type checking phase to provide signatures for the module methods it
provides. Now the protocol classes are starting to shine, because these methods
are provided by `pure.charencoding` and `cext.parsers`, and references to
`cffi.charencoding` and `cext.charencoding` are forwarded to them as appropriate
by the `policy` module. But none of that matters, as long as the module
returned provides the listed methods.
The interface was copy/pasted from the `pure` module, but `jsonescapeu8fallback`
is omitted because it is accessed from the `pure` module directly when the
escaping fails in the primary module's `jsonescapeu8()`.
Mercurial
=========
Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.
Basic install::
$ make # see install targets
$ make install # do a system-wide install
$ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
$ hg # see help
Running without installing::
$ make local # build for inplace usage
$ ./hg --version # should show the latest version
See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
Notes for packagers
===================
Mercurial ships a copy of the python-zstandard sources. This is used to
provide support for zstd compression and decompression functionality. The
module is not intended to be replaced by the plain python-zstandard nor
is it intended to use a system zstd library. Patches can result in hard
to diagnose errors and are explicitly discouraged as unsupported
configuration.
