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.

Test pull of non-existing 20 character revision specification, making sure plain ascii identifiers
not are encoded like a node:

  $ hg pull -r 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxy'
  pulling from http://foo@localhost:$HGPORT/
  abort: unknown revision 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxy'!
  [255]
  $ hg pull -r 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx y'
  pulling from http://foo@localhost:$HGPORT/
  abort: unknown revision '7878787878787878787878787878787878782079'!
  [255]

Issue622: hg init && hg pull -u URL doesn't checkout default branch

Test 'file:' uri handling:

  $ hg pull -q file://../test-does-not-exist
  abort: file:// URLs can only refer to localhost
  [255]

  $ hg pull -q file://../test
  abort: file:// URLs can only refer to localhost
  [255]

  $ hg pull -q file:../test  # no-msys

It's tricky to make file:// URLs working on every platform with
regular shell commands.

  $ URL=`$PYTHON -c "import os; print 'file://foobar' + ('/' + os.getcwd().replace(os.sep, '/')).replace('//', '/') + '/../test'"`
  $ hg pull -q "$URL"
  abort: file:// URLs can only refer to localhost
  [255]

  $ URL=`$PYTHON -c "import os; print 'file://localhost' + ('/' + os.getcwd().replace(os.sep, '/')).replace('//', '/') + '/../test'"`
  $ hg pull -q "$URL"

  $ cd ..
