url: refactor util.drop_scheme() and hg.localpath() into url.localpath()
This replaces util.drop_scheme() with url.localpath(), using url.url for
parsing instead of doing it on its own. The function is moved from
util to url to avoid an import cycle.
hg.localpath() is removed in favor of using url.localpath(). This
provides more consistent behavior between "hg clone" and other
commands.
To preserve backwards compatibility, URLs like bundle://../foo still
refer to ../foo, not /foo.
If a URL contains a scheme, percent-encoded entities are decoded. When
there's no scheme, all characters are left untouched.
Comparison of old and new behaviors:
URL drop_scheme() hg.localpath() url.localpath()
=== ============= ============== ===============
file://foo/foo /foo foo/foo /foo
file://localhost:80/foo /foo localhost:80/foo /foo
file://localhost:/foo /foo localhost:/foo /foo
file://localhost/foo /foo /foo /foo
file:///foo /foo /foo /foo
file://foo (empty string) foo /
file:/foo /foo /foo /foo
file:foo foo foo foo
file:foo%23bar foo%23bar foo%23bar foo#bar
foo%23bar foo%23bar foo%23bar foo%23bar
/foo /foo /foo /foo
Windows-related paths on Windows:

issue1153: File URIs aren't handled correctly in windows
This patch should preserve the fix implemented in
2770d03ae49f. However, it goes a step further and "promotes"
Windows-style drive letters from being interpreted as host names to
being part of the path.

issue2154: Cannot escape '#' in Mercurial URLs (#1172 in THG)
The fragment is still interpreted as a revision or a branch, even in
paths to bundles. However, when file: is used, percent-encoded
entities are decoded, so file:test%23bundle.hg can refer to
test#bundle.hg ond isk.
schemes: prevent one letter schemes from being interpreted as drive letters
To allow one letter schemes, this makes the extension override
url.has_drive_letter() to return False for any schemes defined.
On Windows, the extension will raise util.Abort for any schemes that
conflict with existing drive letters.
httprepo/sshrepo: use url.url
Like the previous patch to getauthinfo(), this also makes
username/password parsing more forgiving for SSH URLs.
This also opens up the possibility of allowing non-numeric ports,
since the URL parser has no problem handling them.

url: special case bundle URL parsing to preserve backwards compatibility
This allows bundle://../foo to continue to refer to the relative path
../foo (bundle URLs do not take host names).
url: add trailing slashes to URLs with hostnames that don't have one
This works around a potential issue in Python 2.4 where cloning a repo
with a URL like http://foo:8080 would cause urllib2 to query on
http://foo:8080?cmd=capabilities instead of
http://foo:8080/?cmd=capabilities.
In the past, this issue has been masked by the fact that
url.getauthinfo() added a trailing slash when it was missing.
url: move drive letter checking into has_drive_letter() for extensions
This will let the schemes extension override drive letter detection to
allow single letter schemes.
