test-lfs: add tests covering http exchanges

This tries to test every combination of having the extension enabled/disabled
on each side, and then push/pull/clone/identify lfs and non-lfs content.  SSH is
ignored here, because there's enough going on as it is.

The root issue here is again that requirements are not exchanged and preserved
on push/pull/clone.  Doing so should eliminate the cryptic error messages when
using `hg serve`.  The 500 server error is triggered by "ValueError: no common
changegroup version", because the extension forces changegroup3.  Or, if
changegroup3 is enabled manually, it is triggered by "abort: missing processor
for flag '0x2000'!".

Sadly, run-tests.py doesn't support conditionalizing the exit code like it does
lines of output.  Therefore, a couple of tests blot out the exit code by
appending "|| true", since these failures will go away shortly anyway.

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install::

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing::

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
