histedit: delete histedit statefile on any exception during abort

When an user aborts a histedit, many things could go wrong. At a minimum, after
a histedit abort failure, their repository should be out of that state. We've
found situations where the user could not exit the histedit state without
manually deleting the histedit state file. This patch ensures that if any
exception happens during an abort, the histedit statefile will be deleted so
that users are out of the histedit state and can at least manually get the repo
back to a workable condition.

  $ cat > abortcommit.py <<EOF
  > from mercurial import util
  > def hook(**args):
  >     raise util.Abort("no commits allowed")
  > def reposetup(ui, repo):
  >     repo.ui.setconfig("hooks", "pretxncommit.nocommits", hook)
  > EOF
  $ abspath=`pwd`/abortcommit.py

  $ cat <<EOF >> $HGRCPATH

  $ hg init foo
  $ cd foo
  $ echo foo > foo
  $ hg add foo

mq may keep a reference to the repository so __del__ will not be
called and .hg/journal.dirstate will not be deleted:

  $ hg ci -m foo
  error: pretxncommit.nocommits hook failed: no commits allowed
  transaction abort!
  rollback completed
  abort: no commits allowed
  [255]
  $ hg ci -m foo
  error: pretxncommit.nocommits hook failed: no commits allowed
  transaction abort!
  rollback completed
  abort: no commits allowed
  [255]

  $ cd ..
