util: replace 'ellipsis' implementation by 'encoding.trim'

Before this patch, 'util.ellipsis' tried to avoid splitting at
intermediate multi-byte sequence, but its implementation was incorrect.

Internal function '_ellipsis' trims specified unicode sequence not at
most maxlength 'columns in display', but at most maxlength number of
'unicode characters'.

    def _ellipsis(text, maxlength):
        if len(text) <= maxlength:
            return text, False
        else:
            return "%s..." % (text[:maxlength - 3]), True

In many encodings, number of unicode characters can be different from
columns in display.

This patch replaces 'ellipsis' implementation by 'encoding.trim',
which can trim string at most maxlength columns in display correctly,
even though specified string contains multi-byte characters.

'_ellipsis' is removed in this patch, because it is referred only from
'ellipsis'.

Create a repository:

  $ hg config
  defaults.backout=-d "0 0"
  defaults.commit=-d "0 0"
  defaults.shelve=--date "0 0"
  defaults.tag=-d "0 0"
  ui.slash=True
  ui.interactive=False
  $ hg init t
  $ cd t

Make a changeset:

  $ echo a > a
  $ hg add a
  $ hg commit -m test

This command is ancient:

  $ hg history
  changeset:   0:acb14030fe0a
  tag:         tip
  user:        test
  date:        Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 +0000
  summary:     test
  

Verify that updating to revision 0 via commands.update() works properly

  $ cat <<EOF > update_to_rev0.py
  > from mercurial import ui, hg, commands
  > myui = ui.ui()
  > repo = hg.repository(myui, path='.')
  > commands.update(myui, repo, rev=0)
  > EOF
  $ hg up null
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ python ./update_to_rev0.py
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ hg identify -n
  0


Poke around at hashes:

  $ hg manifest --debug
  b789fdd96dc2f3bd229c1dd8eedf0fc60e2b68e3 644   a

  $ hg cat a
  a

Verify should succeed:

  $ hg verify
  checking changesets
  checking manifests
  crosschecking files in changesets and manifests
  checking files
  1 files, 1 changesets, 1 total revisions

At the end...

  $ cd ..
