peer: add an iterbatcher interface

This is very much like ordinary batch(), but it will let me add a mode
for batch where we have pathologically large requests which are then
handled streamily. This will be a significant improvement for things
like remotefilelog, which may want to request thousands of entities at
once.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
