clonebundle: make it possible to retrieve the initial bundle through largefile

By setting the default path early enough, we make it possible to retrieve a
clone bundle as a largefile from the repository we are cloning.

But... why?

Clone bundle is a great feature to speeds up clone of large repository. However
one of the main obstacle for clone bundle deployment is the authentication
scheme. For non public project, just putting a static file on some random CDN is
not an option as we have to make sure people have the proper permission to
retrieves the bundle. On the other hand, 'largefiles' already have all the
necessary logic to serve arbitrary binary files -after- an authentication
checks. So reusing an existing large file infrastructure can be a significant
shortcut to clone bundle in this kind of closed environment.

The idea might seems strange, but the necessary update to the large file
extensions are quite small while the benefits are huge. In addition, since all
the extra logic live in the 'largefiles' extensions, core does not have to know
anything about it.

Create a repository:

  $ hg config
  devel.all-warnings=true
  devel.default-date=0 0
  extensions.fsmonitor= (fsmonitor !)
  largefiles.usercache=$TESTTMP/.cache/largefiles
  lfs.usercache=$TESTTMP/.cache/lfs
  ui.slash=True
  ui.interactive=False
  ui.mergemarkers=detailed
  ui.promptecho=True
  web.address=localhost
  web\.ipv6=(?:True|False) (re)
  $ hg init t
  $ cd t

Prepare a changeset:

  $ echo a > a
  $ hg add a

  $ hg status
  A a

Writes to stdio succeed and fail appropriately

#if devfull
  $ hg status 2>/dev/full
  A a

  $ hg status >/dev/full
  abort: No space left on device
  [255]
#endif

#if devfull no-chg
  $ hg status >/dev/full 2>&1
  [1]

  $ hg status ENOENT 2>/dev/full
  [1]
#endif

#if devfull chg
  $ hg status >/dev/full 2>&1
  [255]

  $ hg status ENOENT 2>/dev/full
  [255]
#endif

  $ hg commit -m test

This command is ancient:

  $ hg history
  changeset:   0:acb14030fe0a
  tag:         tip
  user:        test
  date:        Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 +0000
  summary:     test
  

Verify that updating to revision 0 via commands.update() works properly

  $ cat <<EOF > update_to_rev0.py
  > from mercurial import ui, hg, commands
  > myui = ui.ui.load()
  > repo = hg.repository(myui, path='.')
  > commands.update(myui, repo, rev=0)
  > EOF
  $ hg up null
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ $PYTHON ./update_to_rev0.py
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ hg identify -n
  0


Poke around at hashes:

  $ hg manifest --debug
  b789fdd96dc2f3bd229c1dd8eedf0fc60e2b68e3 644   a

  $ hg cat a
  a

Verify should succeed:

  $ hg verify
  checking changesets
  checking manifests
  crosschecking files in changesets and manifests
  checking files
  1 files, 1 changesets, 1 total revisions

At the end...

  $ cd ..
