remotenames: add test showing overwriting on remotenames data
The current storage logic every time overwrites the existing data with the new
data. This patch adds test to demonstrate that. To fix this, we need to add
logic to read existing remotenames data and merge with existing data which will
be added in upcoming changesets.

remotenames: add functionality to store remotenames under .hg/hgremotenames/
This patch moves the functionality from remotenames extension to store
remotenames to core.
Storage format used by remotenames extension:
A single file `.hg/remotenames` with an entry in each line where each line is of
format:
`node nametype remotepath/name`
where nametype is either 'bookmarks' or 'branches'.
This was not the best way to store data, so while moving to core the storage
format was changed but yet not the final format. The storage format used by core
after this patch will be:
* A file for each type of name i.e. bookmarks and branches in .hg/remotenames/
directory
* A version number on the top of the file. The version for current format is 0.
* An entry in each line where each line is of the format
`node\0remotepath\0name`
The logic to sync with existing remotenames file and saving journals and other
related things will be moved to core in next patches incrementally.
Thanks to Ryan, Augie and Durham for suggestions on storage format.

remotenames: move function to pull remotenames from the remoterepo to core
This patch is the first patch of the series moving functionality from
hgremotenames extension to core.
There are lot of functionality in the extension which in the end enables us to
store branch heads and bookmarks location on a server from which we are pulling
or cloning from. This will help us in creating a better bookmark workflow where
we can show user that a certain server has this bookmarks at this node. It will
also introduce namespaces related to remote bookmarks and remote branches.
This patch moves the functionality to pull branches and bookmarks from a
server from which we are pulling to core behind config option
`experimental.remotenames`.
This patch adds a test which helps us to analyse whether things are working or
not. We are currently writing things to ui, we will write information to files
in upcoming patches.
