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.

#require killdaemons

Test wire protocol unbundle with hashed heads (capability: unbundlehash)

  $ cat << EOF >> $HGRCPATH
  > [devel]
  > # This tests is intended for bundle1 only.
  > # bundle2 carries the head information inside the bundle itself and
  > # always uses 'force' as the heads value.
  > legacy.exchange = bundle1
  > EOF

Create a remote repository.

  $ hg init remote
  $ hg serve -R remote --config web.push_ssl=False --config web.allow_push=* -p $HGPORT -d --pid-file=hg1.pid -E error.log -A access.log
  $ cat hg1.pid >> $DAEMON_PIDS

Clone the repository and push a change.

  $ hg clone http://localhost:$HGPORT/ local
  no changes found
  updating to branch default
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ touch local/README
  $ hg ci -R local -A -m hoge
  adding README
  $ hg push -R local
  pushing to http://localhost:$HGPORT/
  searching for changes
  remote: adding changesets
  remote: adding manifests
  remote: adding file changes
  remote: added 1 changesets with 1 changes to 1 files

Ensure hashed heads format is used.
The hash here is always the same since the remote repository only has the null head.

  $ cat access.log | grep unbundle
  * - - [*] "POST /?cmd=unbundle HTTP/1.1" 200 - x-hgarg-1:heads=686173686564+6768033e216468247bd031a0a2d9876d79818f8f* (glob)

Explicitly kill daemons to let the test exit on Windows
