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)

Set up a repo

  $ cat <<EOF >> $HGRCPATH
  > [ui]
  > interactive = true
  > [extensions]
  > record =
  > EOF

  $ hg init a
  $ cd a

Record help

  $ hg record -h
  hg record [OPTION]... [FILE]...
  
  interactively select changes to commit
  
      If a list of files is omitted, all changes reported by 'hg status' will be
      candidates for recording.
  
      See 'hg help dates' for a list of formats valid for -d/--date.
  
      If using the text interface (see 'hg help config'), you will be prompted
      for whether to record changes to each modified file, and for files with
      multiple changes, for each change to use. For each query, the following
      responses are possible:
  
        y - record this change
        n - skip this change
        e - edit this change manually
  
        s - skip remaining changes to this file
        f - record remaining changes to this file
  
        d - done, skip remaining changes and files
        a - record all changes to all remaining files
        q - quit, recording no changes
  
        ? - display help
  
      This command is not available when committing a merge.
  
  (use 'hg help -e record' to show help for the record extension)
  
  options ([+] can be repeated):
  
   -A --addremove           mark new/missing files as added/removed before
                            committing
      --close-branch        mark a branch head as closed
      --amend               amend the parent of the working directory
   -s --secret              use the secret phase for committing
   -e --edit                invoke editor on commit messages
   -I --include PATTERN [+] include names matching the given patterns
   -X --exclude PATTERN [+] exclude names matching the given patterns
   -m --message TEXT        use text as commit message
   -l --logfile FILE        read commit message from file
   -d --date DATE           record the specified date as commit date
   -u --user USER           record the specified user as committer
   -S --subrepos            recurse into subrepositories
   -w --ignore-all-space    ignore white space when comparing lines
   -b --ignore-space-change ignore changes in the amount of white space
   -B --ignore-blank-lines  ignore changes whose lines are all blank
   -Z --ignore-space-at-eol ignore changes in whitespace at EOL
  
  (some details hidden, use --verbose to show complete help)
