help: document bundle specifications

I softly formalized the concept of a "bundle specification" a while
ago when I was working on clone bundles and stream clone bundles and
wanted a more robust way to define what exactly is in a bundle file.

The concept has existed for a while. Since it is part of the clone
bundles feature and exposed to the user via the "-t" argument to
`hg bundle`, it is something we need to support for the long haul.

After the 4.1 release, I heard a few people comment that they didn't
realize you could generate zstd bundles with `hg bundle`. I'm
partially to blame for not documenting it in bundle's docstring.

Additionally, I added a hacky, experimental feature for controlling
the compression level of bundles in 76104a4899ad. As the commit
message says, I went with a quick and dirty solution out of time
constraints. Furthermore, I wanted to eventually store this
configuration in the "bundlespec" so it could be made more flexible.

Given:

a) bundlespecs are here to stay
b) we don't have great documentation over what they are, despite being
   a user-facing feature
c) the list of available compression engines and their behavior isn't
   exposed
d) we need an extensible place to modify behavior of compression
   engines

I want to move forward with formalizing bundlespecs as a user-facing
feature. This commit does that by introducing a "bundlespec" help
page. Leaning on the just-added compression engine documentation
and API, the topic also conveniently lists available compression
engines and details about them. This makes features like zstd
bundle compression more discoverable. e.g. you can now
`hg help -k zstd` and it lists the "bundlespec" topic.

Enable ui.formatted because pager won't fire without it, and set up
pager and tell it to use our fake pager that lets us see when the
pager was running.
  $ cat >> $HGRCPATH <<EOF

  > formatted = yes

By default diff and log are paged, but summary is not:

We can enable the pager on summary:

  $ hg --config pager.attend-summary=yes summary
  paged! 'parent: 10:46106edeeb38 tip\n'
  paged! ' modify a 10\n'
  paged! 'branch: default\n'

  paged! 'phases: 11 draft\n'

If we completely change the attend list that's respected:

If 'log' is in attend, then 'history' should also be paged:
  $ hg history --limit 2 --config pager.attend=log
  paged! 'changeset:   10:46106edeeb38\n'
  paged! 'tag:         tip\n'

  paged! 'summary:     modify a 9\n'
  paged! '\n'

Possible bug: history is explicitly ignored in pager config, but
because log is in the attend list it still gets pager treatment.

  $ hg history --limit 2 --config pager.attend=log \
  >   --config pager.ignore=history
  paged! 'changeset:   10:46106edeeb38\n'

Possible bug: history is explicitly marked as attend-history=no, but
it doesn't fail to get paged because log is still in the attend list.

  $ hg history --limit 2 --config pager.attend-history=no
  paged! 'changeset:   10:46106edeeb38\n'
  paged! 'tag:         tip\n'

  paged! 'summary:     modify a 9\n'
  paged! '\n'

Possible bug: disabling pager for log but enabling it for history
doesn't result in history being paged.

  $ hg history --limit 2 --config pager.attend-log=no \
  > --config pager.attend-history=yes
  changeset:   10:46106edeeb38
  tag:         tip

Pager should not start if stdout is not a tty.

  $ hg log -l1 -q --config ui.formatted=False
  10:46106edeeb38

Pager with color enabled allows colors to come through by default,
even though stdout is no longer a tty.

Pager works with shell aliases.

  $ cat >> $HGRCPATH <<EOF
  > [alias]
  > echoa = !echo a
  > EOF

  $ hg echoa
  a
  $ hg --config pager.attend-echoa=yes echoa
  paged! 'a\n'

Pager works with hg aliases including environment variables.

  $ cat >> $HGRCPATH <<'EOF'
  > [alias]
  > printa = log -T "$A\n" -r 0
  > EOF

  $ A=1 hg --config pager.attend-printa=yes printa
  paged! '1\n'
  $ A=2 hg --config pager.attend-printa=yes printa
  paged! '2\n'

Something that's explicitly attended is still not paginated if the
pager is globally set to off using a flag:
  $ A=2 hg --config pager.attend-printa=yes printa --pager=no
  2

Pager should not override the exit code of other commands

  $ cat >> $TESTTMP/fortytwo.py <<'EOF'
  > from mercurial import cmdutil, commands
  > cmdtable = {}
  > command = cmdutil.command(cmdtable)
  > @command('fortytwo', [], 'fortytwo', norepo=True)
  > def fortytwo(ui, *opts):
  >     ui.write('42\n')
  >     return 42
  > EOF

  $ cat >> $HGRCPATH <<'EOF'
  > [extensions]
  > fortytwo = $TESTTMP/fortytwo.py
  > EOF

  $ hg fortytwo --pager=on
  paged! '42\n'
  [42]
