commandserver: move "listen" responsibility from service to handler This enables chg to replace a server socket in an atomic way: 1. bind to a temp address 2. listen 3. rename Currently 3 happens before 2 so a client may see the socket file but fails to connect to it.

hghave: remove py27+ capability It is now unused. And we require Python 2.7+ now so this check is not necessary.

tests: remove test targeting Python 2.6 We just removed support for Python 2.7. This test is dead since it only ran on <2.7.

setup: drop support for Python 2.6 (BC) Per discussion on the mailing list and elsewhere, we've decided that Python 2.6 is too old to continue supporting. We keep accumulating hacks/fixes/workarounds for 2.6 and this is taking time away from more important work. So with this patch, we officially drop support for Python 2.6 and require Python 2.7 to run Mercurial.

perf: move revlog construction and length calculation out of benchmark We don't need to measure the time it takes to open the revlog or calculate its length. This is more consistent with what other perf* functions do. While I was here, I also renamed the revlog variable from "r" to "rl" - again in the name of consistency.

perf: clear revlog caches on every iteration cmdutil.openrevlog() may return a cached revlog instance. This /may/ be a recent "regression" due to refactoring of the manifest API. I'm not sure. Either way, this perf command was broken for at least manifests because subsequent invocations of the perf function would get cache hits from previous invocations, invalidating results. In the extreme case, testing the last revision in the revlog resulted in near-instantanous execution of subsequent runs (since the fulltext is cached). A time of ~1us would be reported in this case.
