sshpeer: defer pipe buffering and stderr sidechannel binding

The doublepipe and bufferedinputpipe types facilitate polling
multiple pipes without blocking and for automatically forwarding
output from the SSH server's stderr pipe to the ui as "remote: "
output. This all happens automatically and callers don't need
to worry about reading from multiple pipes.

An upcoming change to version 2 of the SSH wire protocol will
eliminate the use of stderr and move side-channel output into
the "main" pipe. The SSH wire protocol will use a pair of
unidirectional pipes - just like the HTTP protocol. In this
future world, the doublepipe primitive isn't necessary because
the stderr pipe won't be used.

To prepare for eventually not using doublepipe, we delay the
construction of this primitive from immediately after
connection establishment to inside construction of the peer
instance. The handshake occurs between these two events. So
we had to teach the handshake code to read from stderr so
any stderr output from the server is still attended to early in
the connection lifetime.

     # Those commands (from oldest to newest) are:
     #
     # ``between``
     #   Asks for the set of revisions between a pair of revisions. Command
     #   present in all Mercurial server implementations.
     #
     # ``hello``
     #   Instructs the server to advertise its capabilities. Introduced in
     #   Mercurial 0.9.1.
     #
     # ``upgrade``
     #   Requests upgrade from default transport protocol version 1 to
     #   a newer version. Introduced in Mercurial 4.6 as an experimental
     #   feature.
     #
     # The ``between`` command is issued with a request for the null
     # range. If the remote is a Mercurial server, this request will
     # generate a specific response: ``1\n\n``. This represents the
     # wire protocol encoded value for ``\n``. We look for ``1\n\n``
     # in the output stream and know this is the response to ``between``
     # and we're at the end of our handshake reply.
     #
     # The response to the ``hello`` command will be a line with the
     # length of the value returned by that command followed by that
     # value. If the server doesn't support ``hello`` (which should be
     # rare), that line will be ``0\n``. Otherwise, the value will contain
     # RFC 822 like lines. Of these, the ``capabilities:`` line contains
     # the capabilities of the server.
     #
     # The ``upgrade`` command isn't really a command in the traditional
     # sense of version 1 of the transport because it isn't using the
     # proper mechanism for formatting insteads: instead, it just encodes
     # arguments on the line, delimited by spaces.
     #
     # The ``upgrade`` line looks like ``upgrade <token> <capabilities>``.
     # If the server doesn't support protocol upgrades, it will reply to
     # this line with ``0\n``. Otherwise, it emits an
     # ``upgraded <token> <protocol>`` line to both stdout and stderr.
     # Content immediately following this line describes additional
     # protocol and server state.
     #
     # In addition to the responses to our command requests, the server
     # may emit "banner" output on stdout. SSH servers are allowed to
     # print messages to stdout on login. Issuing commands on connection
     # allows us to flush this banner output from the server by scanning
     # for output to our well-known ``between`` command. Of course, if
