treediscovery: fix regression when run against older repos (issue2793)

I ran the entire test suite with "known" and "getbundle" disabled in
localrepository. This generated failures because the old findoutgoing
had always queried remote's heads explicitly and thus always got them
back in the returned heads. treediscovery.findcommonincoming now
correctly returns remote's heads in all cases.

Also adds a dedicated test for running treediscovery against a
pre-getbundle HTTP server.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
