help: add documentation for changegroup formats

There is no formal location for spec-like technical/internal docs. The
repository makes sense as such a location because spec-like
documentation should be reviewed (ruling out a wiki). mpm has also
stated that he would like this documentation to be part of the
built-in help system. So, we establish an "internals" sub-directory
to hold this class of documentation.

The format of changegroups does not appear to be documented anywhere,
even in source code. It therefore seemed like an appropriate first thing
to document.

This patch adds low-level documentation of versions 1 and 2 of the
changegroup foromat. It currently only describes the raw data format.
There is probably room to write higher-level documentation on strategies
for producing and consuming the data. We'll leave that for another day.

The added file is not yet accessible via `hg help` nor via hgweb.
Support for this will follow in subsequent patches.

Make sure that the internal merge tools (internal:fail, internal:local,
internal:union and internal:other) are used when matched by a
merge-pattern in hgrc

Make sure HGMERGE doesn't interfere with the test:

  $ unset HGMERGE

  $ hg init

Initial file contents:

  $ echo "line 1" > f
  $ echo "line 2" >> f
  $ echo "line 3" >> f
  $ hg ci -Am "revision 0"
  adding f

  $ cat f
  line 1
  line 2
  line 3

Branch 1: editing line 1:

  $ sed 's/line 1/first line/' f > f.new
  $ mv f.new f
  $ hg ci -Am "edited first line"

Branch 2: editing line 3:

  $ hg update 0
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ sed 's/line 3/third line/' f > f.new
  $ mv f.new f
  $ hg ci -Am "edited third line"
  created new head

Merge using internal:fail tool:

  $ echo "[merge-patterns]" > .hg/hgrc
  $ echo "* = internal:fail" >> .hg/hgrc

  $ hg merge
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 1 files unresolved
  use 'hg resolve' to retry unresolved file merges or 'hg update -C .' to abandon
  [1]

  $ cat f
  line 1
  line 2
  third line

  $ hg stat
  M f

Merge using internal:local tool:

  $ hg update -C 2
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ sed 's/internal:fail/internal:local/' .hg/hgrc > .hg/hgrc.new
  $ mv .hg/hgrc.new .hg/hgrc

  $ hg merge
  0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)

  $ cat f
  line 1
  line 2
  third line

  $ hg stat
  M f

Merge using internal:other tool:

  $ hg update -C 2
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ sed 's/internal:local/internal:other/' .hg/hgrc > .hg/hgrc.new
  $ mv .hg/hgrc.new .hg/hgrc

  $ hg merge
  0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)

  $ cat f
  first line
  line 2
  line 3

  $ hg stat
  M f

Merge using default tool:

  $ hg update -C 2
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ rm .hg/hgrc

  $ hg merge
  merging f
  0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)

  $ cat f
  first line
  line 2
  third line

  $ hg stat
  M f

Merge using internal:union tool:

  $ hg update -C 2
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved

  $ echo "line 4a" >>f
  $ hg ci -Am "Adding fourth line (commit 4)"
  $ hg update 2
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved

  $ echo "line 4b" >>f
  $ hg ci -Am "Adding fourth line v2 (commit 5)"
  created new head

  $ echo "[merge-patterns]" > .hg/hgrc
  $ echo "* = internal:union" >> .hg/hgrc

  $ hg merge 3
  merging f
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)

  $ cat f
