hgweb: be sure to drain request data even in early error conditions
Thanks to Mads Kiilerich with noticing this. The hg client can only read data
after all the sent data has been read, so we have to read all the request data
even if we're not going to do anything with it (in error conditions). This
is not easy to fix in the client, because we're using Python's httplib, which
is strictly stateful. Abstracted the draining into a separate method.

# An example CGI script to use hgweb, edit as necessary
# adjust python path if not a system-wide install:
#import sys
#sys.path.insert(0, "/path/to/python/lib")
# enable importing on demand to reduce startup time
from mercurial import demandimport; demandimport.enable()
# Uncomment to send python tracebacks to the browser if an error occurs:
#import cgitb
#cgitb.enable()
# If you'd like to serve pages with UTF-8 instead of your default
# locale charset, you can do so by uncommenting the following lines.
# Note that this will cause your .hgrc files to be interpreted in
# UTF-8 and all your repo files to be displayed using UTF-8.

#import os
#os.environ["HGENCODING"] = "UTF-8"
