wireproto: syntax for encoding CBOR into frames
We just vendored a library for encoding and decoding the CBOR
data format. While the intent of that vendor was to support state
files, CBOR is really a nice data format. It is extensible and
compact.
I've been feeling dirty inventing my own data formats for
frame payloads. While custom formats can always beat out a generic
format, there is a cost to be paid in terms of implementation,
comprehension, etc. CBOR is compact enough that I'm not too
worried about efficiency loss. I think the benefits of using
a standardized format outweigh rolling our own formats. So
I plan to make heavy use of CBOR in the wire protocol going
forward.
This commit introduces support for encoding CBOR data in frame
payloads to our function to make a frame from a human string.
We do need to employ some low-level Python code in order to
evaluate a string as a Python expression. But other than that,
this should hopefully be pretty straightforward.
Unit tests for this function have been added.

This test doesn't yet work due to the way fsmonitor is integrated with test runner
$ exit 80
test sparse interaction with other extensions
$ hg init myrepo
$ cd myrepo

Test fsmonitor integration (if available)

adding .hgignore

$ hg commit -m ignoredir2
$ hg sparse --reset
$ hg sparse -I ignoredir1 -I ignoredir2 -I dir1
$ mkdir ignoredir1 ignoredir2 dir1
$ touch ignoredir1/file ignoredir2/file dir1/file
Run status twice to compensate for a condition in fsmonitor where it will check
ignored files the second time it runs, regardless of previous state (ask @sid0)
$ hg status --config extensions.fsmonitor=
? dir1/file
$ hg status --config extensions.fsmonitor=
? dir1/file
Test that fsmonitor ignore hash check updates when .hgignore changes
$ hg up -q ".^"
$ hg status --config extensions.fsmonitor=
? dir1/file
? ignoredir2/file
