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 init repo0

Empty repo / no checkout results in error

  $ hg show stack
  abort: stack view only available when there is a working directory
  [255]

Stack displays single draft changeset as root revision

  $ echo 0 > foo
  $ hg -q commit -A -m 'commit 0'
  $ hg show stack
    @  9f17 commit 0

Stack displays multiple draft changesets

  $ echo 1 > foo
  $ hg commit -m 'commit 1'
  $ echo 2 > foo
  $ hg commit -m 'commit 2'
  $ echo 3 > foo
  $ hg commit -m 'commit 3'
  $ echo 4 > foo
  $ hg commit -m 'commit 4'
  $ hg show stack
    @  2737 commit 4
    o  d1a6 commit 3
    o  128c commit 2
    o  181c commit 1
    o  9f17 commit 0

Public parent of draft base is displayed, separated from stack

  $ hg phase --public -r 0
  $ hg show stack
    @  2737 commit 4
    o  d1a6 commit 3
    o  128c commit 2
    o  181c commit 1
   /   (stack base)
  o  9f17 commit 0

  $ hg phase --public -r 1
  $ hg show stack
    @  2737 commit 4
    o  d1a6 commit 3
    o  128c commit 2
   /   (stack base)
  o  181c commit 1

Draft descendants are shown

  $ hg -q up 2
  $ hg show stack
    o  2737 commit 4
    o  d1a6 commit 3
    @  128c commit 2
   /   (stack base)
  o  181c commit 1

  $ hg -q up 3
  $ hg show stack
    o  2737 commit 4
    @  d1a6 commit 3
    o  128c commit 2
   /   (stack base)
  o  181c commit 1

working dir on public changeset should display special message

  $ hg -q up 1
  $ hg show stack
  (empty stack; working directory parent is a published changeset)

Branch point in descendants displayed at top of graph

  $ hg -q up 3
  $ echo b > foo
  $ hg commit -m 'commit 5 (new dag branch)'
  created new head
  $ hg -q up 2
  $ hg show stack
   \ /  (multiple children)
    |
    o  d1a6 commit 3
    @  128c commit 2
   /   (stack base)
  o  181c commit 1

  $ cd ..

Base is stopped at merges

  $ hg init merge-base
  $ cd merge-base
  $ echo 0 > foo
  $ hg -q commit -A -m initial
  $ echo h1 > foo
  $ hg commit -m 'head 1'
  $ hg -q up 0
  $ echo h2 > foo
  $ hg -q commit -m 'head 2'
  $ hg phase --public -r 0:tip
  $ hg -q up 1
  $ hg merge -t :local 2
  0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ hg commit -m 'merge heads'

TODO doesn't yet handle case where wdir is a draft merge

  $ hg show stack
    @  8ee9 merge heads
   /   (stack base)
  o  5947 head 1

  $ echo d1 > foo
  $ hg commit -m 'draft 1'
  $ echo d2 > foo
  $ hg commit -m 'draft 2'

  $ hg show stack
    @  430d draft 2
    o  787b draft 1
   /   (stack base)
  o  8ee9 merge heads

  $ cd ..

Now move on to stacks when there are more commits after the base branchpoint

  $ hg init public-rebase
  $ cd public-rebase
  $ echo 0 > foo
  $ hg -q commit -A -m 'base'
  $ hg phase --public -r .
  $ echo d1 > foo
  $ hg commit -m 'draft 1'
  $ echo d2 > foo
  $ hg commit -m 'draft 2'
  $ hg -q up 0
  $ echo 1 > foo
  $ hg commit -m 'new 1'
  created new head
  $ echo 2 > foo
  $ hg commit -m 'new 2'
  $ hg -q up 2

Newer draft heads don't impact output

  $ hg show stack
    @  eaff draft 2
    o  2b21 draft 1
   /   (stack base)
  o  b66b base

Newer public heads are rendered

  $ hg phase --public -r '::tip'

  $ hg show stack
    o  baa4 new 2
   /    (2 commits ahead)
  :
  :    (stack head)
  : @  eaff draft 2
  : o  2b21 draft 1
  :/   (stack base)
  o  b66b base

If rebase is available, we show a hint how to rebase to that head

  $ hg --config extensions.rebase= show stack
    o  baa4 new 2
   /    (2 commits ahead; hg rebase --source 2b21 --dest baa4)
  :
  :    (stack head)
  : @  eaff draft 2
  : o  2b21 draft 1
  :/   (stack base)
  o  b66b base

Similar tests but for multiple heads

  $ hg -q up 0
  $ echo h2 > foo
  $ hg -q commit -m 'new head 2'
  $ hg phase --public -r .
  $ hg -q up 2

  $ hg show stack
    o  baa4 new 2
   /    (2 commits ahead)
  : o  9a84 new head 2
  :/    (1 commits ahead)
  :
  :    (stack head)
  : @  eaff draft 2
  : o  2b21 draft 1
  :/   (stack base)
  o  b66b base

  $ hg --config extensions.rebase= show stack
    o  baa4 new 2
   /    (2 commits ahead; hg rebase --source 2b21 --dest baa4)
  : o  9a84 new head 2
  :/    (1 commits ahead; hg rebase --source 2b21 --dest 9a84)
  :
  :    (stack head)
  : @  eaff draft 2
  : o  2b21 draft 1
  :/   (stack base)
  o  b66b base
