hgweb: create dedicated type for WSGI responses
We have refactored the request side of WSGI processing into a dedicated
type. Now let's do the same thing for the response side.
We invent a ``wsgiresponse`` type. It takes an instance of a
request (for consulation) and the WSGI application's "start_response"
handler.
The type basically allows setting the HTTP status line, response
headers, and the response body.
The WSGI application calls sendresponse() to start sending output.
Output is emitted as a generator to be fed through the WSGI application.
According to PEP 3333, this is the preferred way for output to be
transmitted. (Our legacy ``wsgirequest`` exposed a write() to send
data. We do not wish to support this API because it isn't recommended
by PEP 3333.)
The wire protocol code has been ported to use the new API.
