setup: tweak error message for Python 3

We now have beta support for Python 3. In my opinion, it isn't
yet stable enough to allow `pip install Mercurial` to work with
Python 3 out of the box: we don't want people accidentally using
Mercurial with Python 3 just yet.

But I do think we should be more friendly about informing people
of their options.

This commit tweaks the error message that users see when running
setup.py with Python 3. We instruct them about the current level
of Python 3 support, point them at the wiki for more info, and
give them instructions on how to bypass the check.

As part of this, I also changed which version value is printed,
as we were printing a named tuple before.

#require symlink

Create extension that can disable symlink support:

  $ cat > nolink.py <<EOF
  > from mercurial import extensions, util
  > def setflags(orig, f, l, x):
  >     pass
  > def checklink(orig, path):
  >     return False
  > def extsetup(ui):
  >     extensions.wrapfunction(util, 'setflags', setflags)
  >     extensions.wrapfunction(util, 'checklink', checklink)
  > EOF

  $ hg init unix-repo
  $ cd unix-repo
  $ echo foo > a
  $ ln -s a b
  $ hg ci -Am0
  adding a
  adding b
  $ cd ..

Simulate a checkout shared on NFS/Samba:

  $ hg clone -q unix-repo shared
  $ cd shared
  $ rm b
  $ echo foo > b
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py status --debug
  ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"

Make a clone using placeholders:

  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py clone . ../win-repo
  updating to branch default
  2 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ cd ../win-repo
  $ cat b
  a (no-eol)
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug

Empty placeholder:

  $ rm b
  $ touch b
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
  ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"

Write binary data to the placeholder:

  >>> open('b', 'w').write('this is a binary\0') and None
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
  ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"

Write a long string to the placeholder:

  >>> open('b', 'w').write('this' * 1000) and None
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
  ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"

Commit shouldn't succeed:

  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py ci -m1
  nothing changed
  [1]

Write a valid string to the placeholder:

  >>> open('b', 'w').write('this') and None
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
  M b
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py ci -m1
  $ hg manifest tip --verbose
  644   a
  644 @ b

  $ cd ..
