ui: add ui.write() output labeling API This adds output labeling support with the following methods: - ui.write(..., label='topic.name topic2.name2 ...') - ui.write_err(.., label=...) - ui.popbuffer(labeled=False) - ui.label(msg, label) By adding an API to label output directly, the color extension can forgo parsing command output and instead override the above methods to insert ANSI color codes. GUI tools can also override the above methods and use the labels to do GUI-specific styling. popbuffer gains a labeled argument that, when set to True, returns its buffered output with labels handled. In the case of the color extension, this would return output with color codes embedded. For existing users that use this method to capture and parse output, labels are discarded and output returned as normal when labeled is False (the default). Existing wrappers of ui.write() and ui.write_err() should make sure to accept its new **opts argument.

Mercurial supports several ways to specify individual revisions.
A plain integer is treated as a revision number. Negative integers are
treated as sequential offsets from the tip, with -1 denoting the tip,
-2 denoting the revision prior to the tip, and so forth.
A 40-digit hexadecimal string is treated as a unique revision
identifier.
A hexadecimal string less than 40 characters long is treated as a
unique revision identifier and is referred to as a short-form
identifier. A short-form identifier is only valid if it is the prefix
of exactly one full-length identifier.
Any other string is treated as a tag or branch name. A tag name is a
symbolic name associated with a revision identifier. A branch name
denotes the tipmost revision of that branch. Tag and branch names must
not contain the ":" character.
The reserved name "tip" is a special tag that always identifies the
most recent revision.
The reserved name "null" indicates the null revision. This is the
revision of an empty repository, and the parent of revision 0.
The reserved name "." indicates the working directory parent. If no
working directory is checked out, it is equivalent to null. If an
uncommitted merge is in progress, "." is the revision of the first
parent.
