scmutil: add a simple key-value file helper
The purpose of the added class is to serve purposes like save files of shelve
or state files of shelve, rebase and histedit. Keys of these files can be
alphanumeric and start with letters, while values must not contain newlines.
In light of Mercurial's reluctancy to use Python's json module, this tries
to provide a reasonable alternative for a non-nested named data.
Comparing to current approach of storing state in plain text files, where
semantic meaning of lines of text is only determined by their oreder,
simple key-value file allows for reordering lines and thus helps handle
optional values.
Initial use-case I see for this is obs-shelve's shelve files. Later we
can possibly migrate state files to this approach.
The test is in a new file beause I did not figure out where to put it
within existing test suite. If you give me a better idea, I will gladly
follow it.
graphlog: draw multiple edges towards null node (
issue5440)
Before, edge (r, null) was processed only once by newparents. However what
we really need is just stripping the edge (null, null).
