backout: migrate `opts` to native kwargs
It will take a bit to unwind `cmdutil.commit`, so there's a conversion to
byteskwargs there, without changing the type of `opts` in this function. That's
also useful to flag it as needing to be changed.

cHg === A fast client for Mercurial command server running on Unix. Install: $ make $ make install Usage: $ chg help # show help of Mercurial $ alias hg=chg # replace hg command $ chg --kill-chg-daemon # terminate background server Environment variables: Although cHg tries to update environment variables, some of them cannot be changed after spawning the server. The following variables are specially handled: * configuration files are reloaded automatically by default. * CHGHG or HG specifies the path to the hg executable spawned as the background command server. The following variables are available for testing: * CHGDEBUG enables debug messages. * CHGSOCKNAME specifies the socket path of the background cmdserver. * CHGTIMEOUT specifies how many seconds chg will wait before giving up connecting to a cmdserver. If it is 0, chg will wait forever. Default: 60 Build environment variables: * HGPATH: the path to the hg executable to call when CHGHG and HG are not set, instead of "hg" * HGPATHREL=1: when CHGHG and HG are not set, the hg executable will be ./hg relative to the chg executable. Only works on linux, falls back to "hg" otherwise.
