httppeer: support protocol upgrade With the new handshake defined and in place on the server, we can now implement it on the client. The HTTP handshake mechanism has been taught to add headers advertising its support for the new capabilities response. Response handling has been adjusted to allow CBOR responses through. And makepeer() has been taught to instantiate a mutually supported peer. The HTTPv2 peer class doesn't implement the full peer interface. So HTTPv2 is not yet usable as a peer. Like the server side, we support registering handlers for different API services. This allows extensions to easily implement API services and peers. A practical use case for this is to provide a previous implementation of the experimental version 2 wire protocol to a future version of Mercurial. We know there will be BC breaks after 4.6 ships. But someone could take the peer and server code from 4.6, drop it in an extension, and allow its use indefinitely. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D3243

wireproto: define and implement HTTP handshake to upgrade protocol When clients connect to repositories over HTTP, they issue a request to the well-known URL "?cmd=capabilities" to fetch the repository capabilities. This is the handshake portion of the HTTP protocol. This commit defines a mechanism to use that HTTP request to return information about modern server features. If a client sends an X-HgUpgrade-* header containing a list of client-supported API names, the server responds with a response containing information about available services. This includes the normal capabilities string. So if the server doesn't support any newer services, the client can easily fall back. By advertising supported services from clients, server operators can see and log what client support exists in the wild. This will also help with debugging. The response contains the base path to API services. We know there are potential issues with the <repo>/api/ URL space conflicting with hgwebdir and subrepos. By making the API URL dynamic from the perspective of the client, the URL for APIs is not subject to backwards compatibility concerns - at least as long as a ?cmd=capabilities request is made. We've also defined the ``cbor`` client capability for the X-HgProto-* header. This MUST be sent in order to get the modern response from "?cmd=capabilities". During implementation, I initially always sent an application/mercurial-cbor response. However, the handshake mechanism will be more future compatible if the client is in charge of which formats to request. We already perform content negotiation from X-HgProto-*, so keying off this for the capabilities response feels appropriate. In addition, I initially used application/cbor. However, it is conceivable that a non-Mercurial server could serve application/cbor. To rule out this possibility, I've invented a new media type that is Mercurial specific and can't be confused for generic CBOR. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D3242
