wireprotov2: allow multiple fields to follow revision maps The *data wire protocol commands emit a series of CBOR values. Because revision/delta data may be large, their data is emitted outside the map as a top-level bytestring value. Before this commit, we'd emit a single optional bytestring value after the revision descriptor map. This got the job done. But it was limiting in that we could only send a single field. And, it required the consumer to know that the presence of a key in the map implied the existence of a following bytestring value. This commit changes the encoding strategy so top-level bytestring values in the stream are explicitly denoted in a "fieldsfollowing" key. This key contains an array defining what fields that follow and the expected size of each field. By defining things this way, we can easily send N bytestring values without any ambiguity about their order. In addition, clients only need to know how to parse ``fieldsfollowing`` to know if extra values are present. Because this breaks backwards compatibility, we've bumped the version number of the wire protocol version 2 API endpoint. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D4620

chg: import frontend sources...
r28060 cHg
===
A fast client for Mercurial command server running on Unix.
Install:
$ make
$ make install
Usage:
$ chg help # show help of Mercurial
$ alias hg=chg # replace hg command
$ chg --kill-chg-daemon # terminate background server
Environment variables:
Although cHg tries to update environment variables, some of them cannot be
changed after spawning the server. The following variables are specially
handled:
Jun Wu
chg: remove manual reload logic...
r28454 * configuration files are reloaded automatically by default.
Yuya Nishihara
chg: import frontend sources...
r28060 * CHGHG or HG specifies the path to the hg executable spawned as the
background command server.
The following variables are available for testing:
* CHGDEBUG enables debug messages.
* CHGSOCKNAME specifies the socket path of the background cmdserver.
Jun Wu
chg: make timeout adjustable...
r29345 * CHGTIMEOUT specifies how many seconds chg will wait before giving up
Jun Wu
chg: change default connect timeout to 60 seconds...
r29357 connecting to a cmdserver. If it is 0, chg will wait forever. Default: 60
