hgweb: refactor repository name URL parsing...
hgweb: refactor repository name URL parsing The hgwebdir WSGI application detects when a requested URL is for a known repository and it effectively forwards the request to the hgweb WSGI application. The hgweb WSGI application needs to route the request based on the base URL for the repository. The way this normally works is SCRIPT_NAME is used to resolve the base URL and PATH_INFO contains the path after the script. But with hgwebdir, SCRIPT_NAME refers to hgwebdir, not the base URL for the repository. So, there was a hacky REPO_NAME environment variable being set to convey the part of the URL that represented the repository so hgweb could ignore this path component for routing purposes. The use of the environment variable for passing internal state is pretty hacky. Plus, it wasn't clear from the perspective of the URL parsing code what was going on. This commit improves matters by making the repository name an explicit argument to the request parser. The logic around handling of this value has been shored up. We add various checks that the argument is used properly - that the repository name does represent the prefix of the PATH_INFO. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2819

Synopsis
""""""""
**hg-ssh** repositories...
Description
"""""""""""
**hg-ssh** is a wrapper for ssh access to a limited set of mercurial repos.
To be used in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys with the "command" option, see sshd(8):
command="hg-ssh path/to/repo1 /path/to/repo2 ~/repo3 ~user/repo4" ssh-dss ...
(probably together with these other useful options:
no-port-forwarding,no-X11-forwarding,no-agent-forwarding)
This allows pull/push over ssh from/to the repositories given as arguments.
If all your repositories are subdirectories of a common directory, you can
allow shorter paths with:
command="cd path/to/my/repositories && hg-ssh repo1 subdir/repo2"
You can use pattern matching of your normal shell, e.g.:
command="cd repos && hg-ssh user/thomas/* projects/{mercurial,foo}"
You can also add a --read-only flag to allow read-only access to a key, e.g.:
command="hg-ssh --read-only repos/\*"
