tests: add Balto configuration file
I have been developing a Mercurial test runner plugin for being able to run
Mercurial tests with Balto
(https://bitbucket.org/lothiraldan/balto/src/default/).
Balto requires a configuration file so let's include it, I have added the
required information in the configuration file as comments.
I hope Balto would be an helpful tool for other people than me.

tests: make test-alias.t pass with re2
Locally, these "non-ASCII character in alias" errors don't show up,
though I get them when the alias is defined at the command line rather
than in an hgrc.
The brokenness comes from the fact that hgrcs are parsed with regexes,
and re/re2 differ in this way:
$ python -c 'import re; print(re.compile("(.*)").match("aaa\xc0bbbb").groups())'
('aaa\xc0bbbb',)
$ python -c 'import re2; print(re2.compile("(.*)").match("aaa\xc0bbbb").groups())'
('aaa',)
Apparently re2 stops when it encounters invalid utf8 (which I suppose makes sense
given that '.' matches what appears to be a codepoint rather than a byte). This is
presumably a bug in hg, but not very important, so just change the test to stick
to valid utf8.

context: remove seemingly impossible code branch
I'm not a Python expert, but I can't think of a way that the following
branch can ever be hit:
def _changeid(self):
if r'_changeid' in self.__dict__:
return self._changeid
It seems to me that if that condition is true, then this function
would not have been called. The only exception I can think of is if a
reference to the function had been stored beforehand, something like this:
c = fctx.__dict__['_changeid']
fctx._changeid
c()
But that seems like very unlikely code to exist.
The condition was added in
921b64e1f7b9 (filecontext: use 'is not
None' to check for filelog existence, 2013-05-01) as a "bonus" change
(in addition to what the patch was actually about)
