phabricator: add a `phabimport` command

I've had `alias.phabimport = $hg phabread --stack $1 | $hg import --bypass -`
for a while now, and I suspect others do too.  That's limited though, in that it
can't use the information on Phabricator to restore it in the original location,
so I'm making it a first class command.

This doesn't do anything ambitious like that- this is mostly a simplification of
`hg import` to get the equivalent of the alias mentioned above.  The `--bypass`
option is hardcoded to be enabled and the message about amending rejects
dropped (rejects aren't created with `--bypass`), because editing patches on
Phabricator seems like an unusual workflow.

This will need other options, like `--obsolete` and `--secret`.  I think these
would be more useful as config settings, as I imagine the workflows are pretty
fixed depending on roles.  Reviewers who don't queue patches probably never want
`--obsolete`, but may need `--secret`.  Reviewers who do will want the former,
but not the latter.  I left `--stack` as an option, but that should probably be
a config knob too (or at least default to on)- if the point of this is to avoid
rejects, it doesn't make sense to skip dependencies in most cases.

Evolve is going to need a fix to its wrapping of `cmdutil.tryimportone()`, as it
currently assumes `opts` has an `obsolete` key.  It's worked around for now.

Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8136

== New Features ==

 * The amend extension supports the `--currentuser` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--close-branch` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--secret` argument.

 * The uncommit extension supports the `rewrite.update-timestamp` config option.

== New Experimental Features ==


== Bug Fixes  ==


== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==

 * A shell that supports `$(command)`` syntax for command substitution is now
   required for running the test suite. The test runner normally uses
   `sh`, so if that is a shell that doesn't support `$(command)` syntax,
   you can override it by setting `$HGTEST_SHELL` or by passing it to
   `run-tests.py --shell <shell>`.

 * The (experimental) narrow extension's wire protocol changed. If
   you're using it, you'll need to make sure to upgrade server and
   client at the same time.

== Internal API Changes ==
