run-tests: report tests that exception occurred in

We now record the test that an exception occurred in. We put this
information to use by aggregating the count of failures in each
test. For each exception, the exception report now prints the total
number of tests having that exception and the test with the least
number of exceptions exhibiting that failure. The exception list
is now sorted by (total count, tests impacted, count of failures
in least failing test).

This allows us to:

* Assess how widespread a failure is. Some exceptions occur a lot
  in a few tests. Others occur over many tests.
* Easily run a test exhibiting an exception without having to find
  a failure in test output.
* Find and fix low hanging fruit (e.g. exceptions that are the
  only failure in a test).

Here's an example of the new output:

199 (4 tests)   /home/gps/src/hg/hgext/blackbox.py:191: %b requires a bytes-like object, or an object that implements __bytes__, not 'str' (test-devel-warnings.t - 1 total)

# In most cases, the mercurial repository can be read by the bundled hg, but
# that isn't always true because third-party extensions may change the store
# format, for example. In which case, the system hg installation is used.
#
# We want to use the hg version being tested when interacting with the test
# repository, and the system hg when interacting with the mercurial source code
# repository.
#
# The mercurial source repository was typically orignally cloned with the
# system mercurial installation, and may require extensions or settings from
# the system installation.

# rather than the test hg installation.

# The test-repo is a live hg repository which may have evolution markers
# created, e.g. when a ~/.hgrc enabled evolution.
#
# Tests may be run using a custom HGRCPATH, which do not enable evolution
# markers by default.
#
# If test-repo includes evolution markers, and we do not enable evolution
# markers, hg will occasionally complain when it notices them, which disrupts
# tests resulting in sporadic failures.
#
# Since we aren't performing any write operations on the test-repo, there's
# no harm in telling hg that we support evolution markers, which is what the
# following lines for the hgrc file do:
cat >> "$HGRCPATH" << EOF
[experimental]
evolution = createmarkers
EOF

# Use the system hg command if the bundled hg can't read the repository with
