tests: add tests for poorly behaving HTTP server

I've spent several hours over the past few weeks investigating
networking failures involving hg.mozilla.org. As part of this, it
has become clear that the Mercurial client's error handling when
it encounters network failures is far from robust.

To prove this is true, I've devised a battery of tests simulating
various network failures, notably premature connection closes. To
achieve this, I've implemented an extension that monkeypatches the
built-in HTTP server and hooks in at the socket level and allows
various events to occur based on config options. For example, you
can refuse to accept() a client socket or you can close() the socket
after N bytes have been sent or received. The latter effectively
simulates an unexpected connection drop (and these occur all the
time in the real world).

The new test file launches servers exhibiting various "bad" behaviors
and points a client at them. As the many TODO comments in the test
call attention to, Mercurial often displays unhelpful errors when
network-related failures occur. This makes it difficult for users
to understand what's going on and difficult for server administrators
to pinpoint root causes without packet tracing.

Upcoming patches will attempt to fix these error handling
deficiencies.

# reproduce issue2264, issue2516

create test repo
  $ cat <<EOF >> $HGRCPATH
  > [extensions]
  > transplant =
  > EOF
  $ hg init repo
  $ cd repo
  $ template="{rev}  {desc|firstline}  [{branch}]\n"

# we need to start out with two changesets on the default branch
# in order to avoid the cute little optimization where transplant
# pulls rather than transplants
add initial changesets
  $ echo feature1 > file1
  $ hg ci -Am"feature 1"
  adding file1
  $ echo feature2 >> file2
  $ hg ci -Am"feature 2"
  adding file2

# The changes to 'bugfix' are enough to show the bug: in fact, with only
# those changes, it's a very noisy crash ("RuntimeError: nothing
# committed after transplant").  But if we modify a second file in the
# transplanted changesets, the bug is much more subtle: transplant
# silently drops the second change to 'bugfix' on the floor, and we only
# see it when we run 'hg status' after transplanting.  Subtle data loss
# bugs are worse than crashes, so reproduce the subtle case here.

Do a size-preserving modification outside of that process
