tests: properly drop back to root dir in test-status.t

dirstate: use list comprehension to get a list of keys We have used dict.keys() which returns a dict_keys() object instead of list on Python 3. So this patch replaces that with list comprehension which works both on Python 2 and 3.

match: slice over bytes to get the byteschr instead of ascii value

match: make regular expression bytes to prevent TypeError

scmutil: make function name bytes in class filecache func.__name__ returns unicodes and this leads to keyerror when we try to do filecache[''] by passing bytes.

localrepo: deprecate 'wfile' The method had very few users and the modern form is shorter. So let us deprecates another method of the localrepo class.

eol: use 'wvfs' instead of 'wfile' Method is about to be deprecated and the modern form is shorter.

localrepo: use 'wvfs' instead of 'wfile' Method is about to be deprecated and the modern form is shorter.

tagmerge: use 'wvfs' instead of 'wfile' Method is about to be deprecated and the modern form is shorter.

gpg: use 'wvfs' instead of 'wfile' Method is about to be deprecated and the modern form is shorter.

test: add a basic 'test-check-pylint.t' We add a minimal check using pylint for one case we knows we care about: "mutable default" argument. We'll likely extend this over time to cover other useful checks but this is a good starting point.

pager: if old pager extensions is enabled, respect pager.attend This patch makes us respect pager.attend again if the extension is enabled. It also brings back the default attend list, so e.g. summary is not paged by default, just like it used to be before pager was moved into core.

tests: duplicate test for pager for old extension and for in-core pager When the old pager extension is enabled, I think we should try to be as BC as reasonable. To help with that, this patch brings back test-pager.t as of 65a3b4d67a65 (pager: add a test of --pager=no functionality, 2017-02-06), but under the name test-pager-legacy.t However, since the behavior has changed in a few cases (notably by no longer respecting pager.attend), the file is modified to work with the current version. We will recover some lost BC in coming patches. Also, to make sure the in-core pager does not depend on the pager extension being enabled, this patch disables the extension in test-pager.t. It turns out that pager.attend-$cmd was only supported when the pager extension was enabled, so the tests are updated to reflect that. We will need to decide what to do with these.

util: make strdate's defaults default value a dict It was specified to be an empty list in c6adf2be6069 in 2007. It was correct at the time. But when the function was refactored in 91bc001a592f (2010), it started expecting a dict. I guess this code path is untested? Thanks to Yuya for spotting this.

py3: open file in rb mode

debuglabelcomplete: fix to call debugnamecomplete in new location debugnamecomplete was moved in a9aa67ba from commands to debugcommands, but debuglabelcomplete was not modified to call it in its new location.

tests: prove that `hg init` works with Python 3 The previous patch made `hg init` work!

pycompat: custom implementation of urllib.parse.quote() urllib.parse.quote() accepts either str or bytes and returns str. There exists a urllib.parse.quote_from_bytes() which only accepts bytes. We should probably use that to retain strong typing and avoid surprises. In addition, since nearly all strings in Mercurial are bytes, we probably don't want quote() returning unicode. So, this patch implements a custom quote() that only accepts bytes and returns bytes. The quoted URL should only contain URL safe characters which is a strict subset of ASCII. So `.encode('ascii', 'strict')` should be safe.

pycompat: alias urllib symbols directly urllib.request imports a bunch of symbols from other urllib modules. We should map to the original symbols not the re-exported ones because this is more correct. Also, it will prevent an import of urllib.request if only one of the lower-level symbols/modules is needed.

tests: clean up bad extension The presence of the "babar" extension breaks subsequent tests. So delete the file and create an empty one to return the config to sanity.

perf: perform a garbage collection before each iteration Currently, no explicit garbage collection is performed when running the microbenchmarks in `hg perf`. I think this is wrong because garbage collection can have a significant impact on execution times. And, if gc is triggered via the default heuristics, it will fire effectively randomly during subsequent benchmark iterations due to variable amount of garbage left over from previous runs. Running a gc before invoking the measured function will help ensure state is more consistent across all iterations.

formatter: support json formatting of long type By luck, we appear to not pass any long instances into the JSON formatter. I suspect this will change with all the Python 3 porting work. Plus I have another series that will convert some ints to longs that triggers this.
