phabricator: refactor `phabread` to write all patches at once

This will be necessary to create a first class `phabimport` command.  That
command requires a transaction, and will import all named patches within a
single transaction.  But if Phabricator queries also happen within the
transaction, that leaves open the chance that an exception is raised, the
transaction is abandoned, and the next command that is run will complain about
needing to run `hg recover`.

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install::

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing::

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
