wireproto: require POST for all HTTPv2 requests

Wire protocol version 1 transfers argument data via request
headers by default. This has historically caused problems because
servers institute limits on the length of individual HTTP headers
as well as the total size of all request headers. Mercurial servers
can advertise the maximum length of an individual header. But
there's no guarantee any intermediate HTTP agents will accept
headers up to that length.

In the existing wire protocol, server operators typically also
key off the HTTP request method to implement authentication.
For example, GET requests translate to read-only requests and
can be allowed. But read-write commands must use POST and require
authentication. This has typically worked because the only wire
protocol commands that use POST modify the repo (e.g. the
"unbundle" command).

There is an experimental feature to enable clients to transmit
argument data via POST request bodies. This is technically a
better and more robust solution. But we can't enable it by default
because of servers assuming POST means write access.

In version 2 of the wire protocol, the permissions of a request
are encoded in the URL. And with it being a new protocol in a new
URL space, we're not constrained by backwards compatibility
requirements.

This commit adopts the technically superior mechanism of using
HTTP request bodies to send argument data by requiring POST for
all commands. Strictly speaking, it may be possible to send
request bodies on GET requests. But my experience is that not all
HTTP stacks support this. POST pretty much always works. Using POST
for read-only operations does sacrifice some RESTful design
purity. But this API cares about practicality, not about being
in Roy T. Fielding's REST ivory tower.

There's a chance we may relax this restriction in the future. But
for now, I want to see how far we can get with a POST only API.

`hg status` did not add outside.

  $ grep outside .hg/dirstate

Unfortunately this is not really a candidate for adding to narrowhg proper,
since it depends on some other source for providing the manifests (when using
treemanifests) and file contents. Something like a virtual filesystem and/or
remotefilelog. We want to be useful when not using those systems, so we do not
have this method available in narrowhg proper at the moment.

Since we do not have the ability to rely on a virtual filesystem or
remotefilelog in the test, we just fake it by copying the data from the 'master'
repo.
  $ cp -a ../master/.hg/store/data/* .hg/store/data
Do that for patchdir as well.
  $ cp -a ../master/patchdir .

`hg status` will now add outside, but not patchdir.
  $ DIRSTATEINCLUDES=path:outside hg status
  M outside/f2
  $ grep outside .hg/narrowspec
  path:outside
  $ grep outside .hg/dirstate > /dev/null
  $ grep patchdir .hg/narrowspec
  [1]
  $ grep patchdir .hg/dirstate
  [1]

Get rid of the modification to outside/f2.
  $ hg update -C .

This patch will not apply cleanly at the moment, so `hg import` will break
