url: refactor util.drop_scheme() and hg.localpath() into url.localpath()
This replaces util.drop_scheme() with url.localpath(), using url.url for
parsing instead of doing it on its own. The function is moved from
util to url to avoid an import cycle.
hg.localpath() is removed in favor of using url.localpath(). This
provides more consistent behavior between "hg clone" and other
commands.
To preserve backwards compatibility, URLs like bundle://../foo still
refer to ../foo, not /foo.
If a URL contains a scheme, percent-encoded entities are decoded. When
there's no scheme, all characters are left untouched.
Comparison of old and new behaviors:
URL drop_scheme() hg.localpath() url.localpath()
=== ============= ============== ===============
file://foo/foo /foo foo/foo /foo
file://localhost:80/foo /foo localhost:80/foo /foo
file://localhost:/foo /foo localhost:/foo /foo
file://localhost/foo /foo /foo /foo
file:///foo /foo /foo /foo
file://foo (empty string) foo /
file:/foo /foo /foo /foo
file:foo foo foo foo
file:foo%23bar foo%23bar foo%23bar foo#bar
foo%23bar foo%23bar foo%23bar foo%23bar
/foo /foo /foo /foo

issue1153: File URIs aren't handled correctly in windows
This patch should preserve the fix implemented in
2770d03ae49f. However, it goes a step further and "promotes"
Windows-style drive letters from being interpreted as host names to
being part of the path.

issue2154: Cannot escape '#' in Mercurial URLs (#1172 in THG)
The fragment is still interpreted as a revision or a branch, even in
paths to bundles. However, when file: is used, percent-encoded
entities are decoded, so file:test%23bundle.hg can refer to
test#bundle.hg ond isk.
