help: internals topic for wire protocol

The Mercurial wire protocol is under-documented. This includes a lack
of source docstrings and comments as well as pages on the official
wiki.

This patch adds the beginnings of "internals" documentation on the
wire protocol.

The documentation should have nearly complete coverage on the
lower-level parts of the protocol, such as the different transport
mechanims, how commands and arguments are sent, capabilities, and,
of course, the commands themselves.

As part of writing this documentation, I discovered a number of
deficiencies in the protocol and bugs in the implementation. I've
started sending patches for some of the issues. I hope to send a lot
more.

This patch starts with the scaffolding for a new internals page.

Create the repository outside $HOME since largefiles write to
$HOME/.cache/largefiles.

  $ hg init test
  $ cd test
  $ echo "root" > root
  $ hg add root
  $ hg commit -m "Root commit" --config extensions.largefiles=!

Ensure that .hg/largefiles isn't created before largefiles are added

Whatever ... commit something so we can invoke merge when updating

  $ hg commit -m '3: Merge'

Updating from largefile to normal - no reason to prompt

  $ hg up -r 2
  getting changed largefiles
  0 largefiles updated, 0 removed
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ cat foo

(the update above used to leave the working dir in a very weird state - clean it
  $ hg up -qr null
  $ hg up -qr 2
)

Updating from normal to largefile - no reason to prompt

  $ hg up -r 3

Systematic testing of merges involving largefiles:

Ancestor: normal  Parent: normal-id  Parent: large   result: large
Ancestor: normal  Parent: normal2    Parent: large   result: ?
Ancestor: large   Parent: large-id   Parent: normal  result: normal
Ancestor: large   Parent: large2     Parent: normal  result: ?

All cases should try merging both ways.

Prepare test repo:

  $ hg init merges
  $ cd merges

prepare cases with "normal" ancestor:

  $ hg up -qr null
  $ echo normal > f
  $ hg ci -Aqm "normal-ancestor"
  $ hg tag -l "normal-ancestor"
  $ touch f2
  $ hg ci -Aqm "normal-id"
  $ hg tag -l "normal-id"
  $ echo normal2 > f
  $ hg ci -m "normal2"
  $ hg tag -l "normal2"
  $ echo normal > f
  $ hg ci -Aqm "normal-same"
  $ hg tag -l "normal-same"
  $ hg up -qr "normal-ancestor"
  $ hg rm f
  $ echo large > f
  $ hg add --large f
  $ hg ci -qm "large"
  $ hg tag -l "large"

prepare cases with "large" ancestor:

  $ hg up -qr null
  $ echo large > f
  $ hg add --large f
  $ hg ci -qm "large-ancestor"
  $ hg tag -l "large-ancestor"
  $ touch f2
  $ hg ci -Aqm "large-id"
  $ hg tag -l "large-id"
  $ echo large2 > f
  $ hg ci -m "large2"

  $ hg up -qr "large-ancestor"
  $ hg rm f
  $ echo normal > f
  $ hg ci -qAm "normal"
  $ hg tag -l "normal"
