ui: add special-purpose atexit functionality
In spite of its longstanding use, Python's built-in atexit code is
not suitable for Mercurial's purposes, for several reasons:
* Handlers run after application code has finished.
* Because of this, the code that runs handlers swallows exceptions
(since there's no possible stacktrace to associate errors with).
If we're lucky, we'll get something spat out to stderr (if stderr
still works), which of course isn't any use in a big deployment
where it's important that exceptions get logged and aggregated.
* Mercurial's current atexit handlers make unfortunate assumptions
about process state (specifically stdio) that, coupled with the
above problems, make it impossible to deal with certain categories
of error (try "hg status > /dev/full" on a Linux box).
* In Python 3, the atexit implementation is completely hidden, so
we can't hijack the platform's atexit code to run handlers at a
time of our choosing.
As a result, here's a perfectly cromulent atexit-like implementation
over which we have control. This lets us decide exactly when the
handlers run (after each request has completed), and control what
the process state is when that occurs (and afterwards).
$ hg init t
$ cd t
$ echo 1 > foo
$ hg ci -Am1 # 0
adding foo
$ hg branch branchA
marked working directory as branch branchA
(branches are permanent and global, did you want a bookmark?)
$ echo a1 > foo
$ hg ci -ma1 # 1
$ cd ..
$ hg init tt
$ cd tt
$ hg pull ../t

added 2 changesets with 2 changes to 1 files

$ hg up branchA
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ cd ../t
$ echo a2 > foo
$ hg ci -ma2 # 2
Create branch B:
$ hg up 0
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ hg branch branchB
marked working directory as branch branchB
$ echo b1 > foo
$ hg ci -mb1 # 3
$ cd ../tt
A new branch is there
$ hg pull -u ../t

Develop both branches:
$ cd ../t
$ hg up branchA
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ echo a3 > foo
$ hg ci -ma3 # 4
$ hg up branchB
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ echo b2 > foo
$ hg ci -mb2 # 5
$ cd ../tt
Should succeed, no new heads:
$ hg pull -u ../t

Add a head on other branch:
$ cd ../t
$ hg up branchA
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ echo a4 > foo
$ hg ci -ma4 # 6
$ hg up branchB
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ echo b3.1 > foo
$ hg ci -m b3.1 # 7
$ hg up 5
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ echo b3.2 > foo
$ hg ci -m b3.2 # 8
created new head
$ cd ../tt
Should succeed because there is only one head on our branch:
$ hg pull -u ../t
