configitems: add alias support in config Aliases define optional alternatives to existing options. For example the old option ui.user was deprecated and replaced by ui.username. With this mechanism, it's even possible to create an alias to an option in a different section. Add ui.user as alias to ui.username as an example of this concept. The old alternates principle in ui.config is removed as it was used only for this option.

dispatch: fix typo suggestion for disabled extension If the matching command lives in an in-tree extension (which is all we scan for), and the user has disabled that extension with "extensions.<name>=!", we were not finding it, because the path in _disabledextensions was the empty string. If the user had set "extensions.<name>=!<valid path>" it would work, so it seems like just a mistake that it didn't work.

tests: add tests for typoed commands This includes one test showing how disabling a command with e.g. "extensions.rebase=!" results in the command not being suggested. We'll fix that next.

sparse: inline signature cache clearing It is a trivial one-liner. No need to have a separate function.

sparse: move working directory refreshing into core This is a pretty straightforward move of the code. I converted the "force" argument to a keyword argument. Like other recent changes, this code is tightly coupled with working directory update code in merge.py. I suspect the code will become more tightly coupled over time, possibly even moved to merge.py. For now, let's get the code in core.

sparse: refactor update actions filtering and call from core merge.calculateupdates() now filters the update actions through sparse by default. The filtering no-ops if sparse isn't enabled or no sparse config is defined. The function has been refactored to behave more like a filter instead of a wrapper of merge.calculateupdates(). We should arguably take sparse into account earlier in merge.calculateupdates(). This patch preserves the old behavior of applying sparse at the end of update calculation, which is the simplest and safest approach.

sparse: move update action filtering into core This is a relatively straight port of the function. It is pretty large. So refactoring will be postponed to a subsequent commit.

sparse: move pruning of temporary includes into core This was our last method on the custom repo type, meaning we could remove that custom type and inline the 2 lines of code into reposetup(). As part of the move, instead of wrapping merge.update() from the sparse extension, we inline the function call. The ported function now no-ops if sparse isn't enabled, making it safe to always call. The call site in update() may not be the most appropriate. But it matches the previous behavior, which is the safest thing to do. It can be improved later.

sparse: move function for resolving sparse matcher into core As part of the move, the function arguments changed so revs are passed as a list instead of *args. This allows us to use keyword arguments properly. Since the plan is to integrate sparse into core and have it enabled by default, we need to prepare for a sparse matcher to always be obtained and operated on. As part of the move, we inserted code that returns an always matcher if sparse isn't enabled. Some callers in the sparse extension take this into account and conditionally perform matching depending on whether the special always matcher is seen. I /think/ this may have sped up some operations where the extension is installed but no sparse config is activated. One thing I'm ensure of in this code is whether os.path.dirname() is semantically correct. os.posixpath.dirname() (which is exported as pathutil.dirname) might be a better choise because all patterns should be using posix directory separators (/) instead of Windows (\). There's an inline comment that implies Windows was tested. So hopefully it won't be a problem. We can improve this in a follow-up. I've added a TODO to track it.
