extend network protocol to stop clients from locking servers now all repositories have capabilities slot, tuple with list of names. if 'unbundle' capability present, repo supports push where client does not need to lock server. repository classes that have unbundle capability also have unbundle method. implemented for ssh now, will be base for push over http. unbundle protocol acts this way. server tells client what heads it has during normal negotiate step. client starts unbundle by repeat server's heads back to it. if server has new heads, abort immediately. otherwise, transfer changes to server. once data transferred, server locks and checks heads again. if heads same, changes can be added. else someone else added heads, and server aborts. if client wants to force server to add heads, sends special heads list of 'force'.

test-bad-pull: fix change in error output.

sshrepo: fix bug in error formatting.

hgweb: split "verbs" into methods.

http client: support persistent connections. uses keepalive module from urlgrabber package. tested against "hg serve", cgi server, and through http proxy. used ethereal to verify that only one tcp connection used during entire "hg pull" sequence. if server supports keepalive, this makes latency of "hg pull" much lower.
