dirstate: batch calls to statfiles (issue4878) This makes it more interruptible.

parsers: fix infinite loop or out-of-bound read in fm1readmarkers (issue4888) The issue4888 was caused by 0-length obsolete marker. If msize is zero, fm1readmarkers() never ends. This patch adds several bound checks to fm1readmarker(). Therefore, 0-length and invalid-size marker should be rejected.

parsers: read sizes of metadata pair of obsolete marker at once This will make it easy to implement bound checking. Currently fm1readmarker() has no protection for corrupted obsstore and can cause infinite loop or out-of-bound reads.

filemerge: clean up temp files in a finally block This isn't really a big deal because the temp files are created in $TMPDIR, but it makes some upcoming work simpler.

check-code: detect and ban 'util.Abort' We have seen the light, please use the new way.

error: get Abort from 'error' instead of 'util' The home of 'Abort' is 'error' not 'util' however, a lot of code seems to be confused about that and gives all the credit to 'util' instead of the hardworking 'error'. In a spirit of equity, we break the cycle of injustice and give back to 'error' the respect it deserves. And screw that 'util' poser. For great justice.

eol: rename 'error' to 'haserror' The variable 'error' conflict with the module name that we would like to import and use in a coming changeset.

discovery: rename 'error' to 'errormsg' The variable 'error' conflict with the module name that we would like to import and use in a coming changeset.

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.

histedit: check presence of statefile before deleting it When the histeditstate class instance has it's clear() method called, there is nothing to check to see if the state file exists before deleting it. It may not exist, which would create an exception. This patch allows clear to be called at any time. This will be needed for the following patch.
