pager: don't terminate with extreme prejudice on SIGPIPE (BC)
The default SIGPIPE handler causes Mercurial to exit immediately, without
running any Python cleanup code (except and finally blocks, atexit handlers
etc). This creates problems if you want to do something at exit.
If we need a different exit code for broken pipe from pager, then we should
code that ourselves in Python; this appears to have been cargo-culted from
the fork implementation of pager that's no longer used, where it was needed
to stop Broken Pipe errors appearing on the user's terminal.

verify: replace _validpath() by matcher
The verifier calls out to _validpath() to check if it should verify
that path and the narrowhg extension overrides _validpath() to tell
the verifier to skip that path. In treemanifest repos, the verifier
calls the same method to check if it should visit a
directory. However, the decision to visit a directory is different
from the condition that it's a matching path, and narrowhg was working
around it by returning True from its _validpath() override if *either*
was true.
Similar to how one can do "hg files -I foo/bar/ -X foo/" (making the
include pointless), narrowhg can be configured to track the same
paths. In that case match("foo/bar/baz") would be false, but
match.visitdir("foo/bar/baz") turns out to be true, causing verify to
fail. This may seem like a bug in visitdir(), but it's explicitly
documented to be undefined for subdirectories of excluded
directories. When using treemanifests, the walk would not descend into
foo/, so verification would pass. However, when using flat manifests,
there is no recursive directory walk and the file path "foo/bar/baz"
would be passed to _validpath() without "foo/" (actually without the
slash) being passed first. As explained above, _validpath() would
return true for the file path and "hg verify" would fail.
Replacing the _validpath() method by a matcher seems like the obvious
fix. Narrowhg can then pass in its own matcher and not have to
conflate the two matching functions (for dirs and files). I think it
also makes the code clearer.
