obsolescence: add test case A-1 for obsolescence markers exchange

About 3 years ago, in August 2014, the logic to select what markers to select on
push was ported from the evolve extension to Mercurial core. However, for some
unclear reasons, the tests for that logic were not ported alongside.
I realised it a couple of weeks ago while working on another push related issue.
I've made a clean up pass on the tests and they are now ready to integrate the
core test suite. This series of changesets do not change any logic. I just adds
test for logic that has been around for about 10 versions of Mercurial.

They are a patch for each test case. It makes it easier to review and postpone
one with documentation issues without rejecting the wholes series.

This patch introduce case A-1: pushing a single head

Each test case comes it in own test file. It help parallelism and does not
introduce a significant overhead from having a single unified giant test file.
Here are timing  to support this claim.

Tool selection

default is internal merge:

  [merge-tools]
  # hg update -C 1

hg merge -r 2
override $PATH to ensure hgmerge not visible; use $PYTHON in case we're
running from a devel copy, not a temp installation

  $ PATH="$BINDIR:/usr/sbin" $PYTHON "$BINDIR"/hg merge -r 2
  merging f
  warning: conflicts while merging f! (edit, then use 'hg resolve --mark')

Tool execution

set tools.args explicit to include $base $local $other $output:

  $ beforemerge
  [merge-tools]
  false.whatever=
  true.priority=1
  true.executable=cat
  # hg update -C 1
  $ hg merge -r 2 --config merge-tools.true.executable=head --config merge-tools.true.args='$base $local $other $output' \
  >   | sed 's,==> .* <==,==> ... <==,g'
  merging f
  ==> ... <==
  revision 0
  space
  
  ==> ... <==
  revision 1
  space
  
  ==> ... <==
  revision 2
  space
  
  ==> ... <==
  revision 1
  space
  0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ aftermerge
  # cat f
  revision 1
  space
  # hg stat
  M f
  # hg resolve --list
  R f

Merge with "echo mergeresult > $local":

  $ beforemerge
  [merge-tools]
  false.whatever=
  true.priority=1
  true.executable=cat
  # hg update -C 1
  $ hg merge -r 2 --config merge-tools.true.executable=echo --config merge-tools.true.args='mergeresult > $local'
  merging f
  0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ aftermerge
  # cat f
  mergeresult
  # hg stat
  M f
  # hg resolve --list
  R f

- and $local is the file f:

  $ beforemerge
  [merge-tools]
  false.whatever=
  true.priority=1
  true.executable=cat
  # hg update -C 1
  $ hg merge -r 2 --config merge-tools.true.executable=echo --config merge-tools.true.args='mergeresult > f'
  merging f
  0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ aftermerge
  # cat f
  mergeresult
  # hg stat
  M f
  # hg resolve --list
  R f

Merge with "echo mergeresult > $output" - the variable is a bit magic:

  $ beforemerge
  [merge-tools]
  false.whatever=
  true.priority=1
  true.executable=cat
  # hg update -C 1
  $ hg merge -r 2 --config merge-tools.true.executable=echo --config merge-tools.true.args='mergeresult > $output'
  merging f
  0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ aftermerge
  # cat f
  mergeresult
  # hg stat
  M f
  # hg resolve --list
  R f

Merge using tool with a path that must be quoted:

  $ beforemerge
  [merge-tools]
  false.whatever=
  true.priority=1
  true.executable=cat
  # hg update -C 1
  $ cat <<EOF > 'my merge tool'
  > cat "\$1" "\$2" "\$3" > "\$4"
  > EOF
  $ hg --config merge-tools.true.executable='sh' \
  >    --config merge-tools.true.args='"./my merge tool" $base $local $other $output' \
  >    merge -r 2
  merging f
  0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ rm -f 'my merge tool'
  $ aftermerge
  # cat f

Merge post-processing

cat is a bad merge-tool and doesn't change:

  $ beforemerge
  [merge-tools]
  false.whatever=
  true.priority=1
  true.executable=cat
  # hg update -C 1
  $ hg merge -y -r 2 --config merge-tools.true.checkchanged=1
  merging f
  revision 1
  space
  revision 0
  space
  revision 2
  space
   output file f appears unchanged
  was merge successful (yn)? n
  merging f failed!
  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]
  $ aftermerge
  # cat f
  revision 1
  space
  # hg stat
  M f
  ? f.orig
  # hg resolve --list
  U f

#if symlink

internal merge cannot handle symlinks and shouldn't try:

  $ hg update -q -C 1
  $ rm f
  $ ln -s symlink f
  $ hg commit -qm 'f is symlink'
  $ hg merge -r 2 --tool internal:merge
  merging f
  warning: internal :merge cannot merge symlinks for f
  warning: conflicts while merging f! (edit, then use 'hg resolve --mark')
  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]

#endif

Verify naming of temporary files and that extension is preserved:

  $ hg update -q -C 1
  $ hg mv f f.txt
  $ hg ci -qm "f.txt"
  $ hg update -q -C 2
  $ hg merge -y -r tip --tool echo --config merge-tools.echo.args='$base $local $other $output'
  merging f and f.txt to f.txt
