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.

  $ hg init

  $ echo foo > foo
  $ echo bar > bar
  $ hg ci -qAm 'add foo bar'

  $ echo foo2 >> foo
  $ echo bleh > bar
  $ hg ci -m 'change foo bar'

  $ hg up -qC 0
  $ hg mv foo foo1
  $ echo foo1 > foo1
  $ hg cat foo >> foo1
  $ hg ci -m 'mv foo foo1'
  created new head

  $ hg merge
  merging foo1 and foo to foo1
  1 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)

  $ hg debugstate --nodates
  m   0         -2 unset               bar
  m   0         -2 unset               foo1
  copy: foo -> foo1

  $ hg st -q
  M bar
  M foo1


Removing foo1 and bar:

  $ cp foo1 F
  $ cp bar B
  $ hg rm -f foo1 bar

  $ hg debugstate --nodates
  r   0         -1 set                 bar
  r   0         -1 set                 foo1
  copy: foo -> foo1

  $ hg st -qC
  R bar
  R foo1


Re-adding foo1 and bar:

  $ cp F foo1
  $ cp B bar
  $ hg add -v foo1 bar
  adding bar
  adding foo1

  $ hg debugstate --nodates
  n   0         -2 unset               bar
  n   0         -2 unset               foo1
  copy: foo -> foo1

  $ hg st -qC
  M bar
  M foo1
    foo


Reverting foo1 and bar:

  $ hg revert -vr . foo1 bar
  saving current version of bar as bar.orig
  reverting bar
  saving current version of foo1 as foo1.orig
  reverting foo1

  $ hg debugstate --nodates
  n   0         -2 unset               bar
  n   0         -2 unset               foo1
  copy: foo -> foo1

  $ hg st -qC
  M bar
  M foo1
    foo

  $ hg diff

Merge should not overwrite local file that is untracked after remove

  $ rm *
  $ hg up -qC
  $ hg rm bar
  $ hg ci -m 'remove bar'
  $ echo 'memories of buried pirate treasure' > bar
  $ hg merge
  bar: untracked file differs
  abort: untracked files in working directory differ from files in requested revision
  [255]
  $ cat bar
  memories of buried pirate treasure

Those who use force will lose

  $ hg merge -f
  remote changed bar which local deleted
  use (c)hanged version, leave (d)eleted, or leave (u)nresolved? c
  merging foo1 and foo to foo1
  0 files updated, 2 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved

  $ cat bar
