interactive: do not prompt about files given in command line For commit and revert commands with --interactive and explicit files given in the command line, we now skip the invite to "examine changes to <file> ? [Ynesfdaq?]". The reason for this is that, if <file> is specified by the user, asking for confirmation is redundant. In patch.filterpatch(), we now use an optional "match" argument to conditionally call the prompt() function when entering a new "header" item. We use .exact() method to compare with files from the "header" in order to only consider (rel)path patterns. Add tests with glob patterns for commit and revert, to make sure we still ask to examine files in these cases.

Some Mercurial commands can produce a lot of output, and Mercurial will
attempt to use a pager to make those commands more pleasant.
To set the pager that should be used, set the application variable::
[pager]
pager = less -FRX
If no pager is set in the user or repository configuration, Mercurial uses the
environment variable $PAGER. If $PAGER is not set, pager.pager from the default
or system configuration is used. If none of these are set, a default pager will
be used, typically `less` on Unix and `more` on Windows.
.. container:: windows
On Windows, `more` is not color aware, so using it effectively disables color.
MSYS and Cygwin shells provide `less` as a pager, which can be configured to
support ANSI color codes. See :hg:`help config.color.pagermode` to configure
the color mode when invoking a pager.
You can disable the pager for certain commands by adding them to the
pager.ignore list::
[pager]
ignore = version, help, update
To ignore global commands like :hg:`version` or :hg:`help`, you have
to specify them in your user configuration file.
To control whether the pager is used at all for an individual command,
you can use --pager=<value>:
- use as needed: `auto`.
- require the pager: `yes` or `on`.
- suppress the pager: `no` or `off` (any unrecognized value
will also work).
To globally turn off all attempts to use a pager, set::
[ui]
paginate = never
which will prevent the pager from running.
