dispatch: replace mayberepr with shellquote
The quoting logic here was actually insufficient, and would have had
bogus b-prefixes on Python 3. shellquote seems more appropriate
anyway. Surprisingly, only two tests have output changes, and both of
them look reasonable to me (both are in blackbox logs).

color: sync text attributes and buffered text output on Windows (
issue5508)
I originally noticed that log output wasn't being colored after
3a4c0905f357,
but there were other complications too. With a bunch of untracked files, only
the first 1K of characters were colored pink, and the rest were normal white. A
single modified file at the top would also be colored pink.
Line buffering and full buffering are treated as the same thing in Windows [1],
meaning the stream is either buffered or not. I can't find any explicit
documentation to say stdout is unbuffered by default when attached to a console
(but some internet postings indicated that is the case[2]). Therefore, it seems
that explicit flushes are better than just not reopening stdout.
NB: pager is now on by default, and needs to be disabled to see any color on
Windows.

test-check-help: fix to work on Windows
The initial problem was `hg files` prints paths with '\', which gets removed
when piped (scanhelptopics.py failed to open 'hgext__init__.py'). Then, xargs
was invoking `hg help` with 'backout\r (esc)', which setting binary mode
prevents.
branchmap: be more careful about using %d on ints
Not doing so breaks Python 3.
