hgweb: extract changeset template mapping generation to own function Similar in spirit to 513d47905114, I want to write an extension to make available extra template keywords so hgweb templates can include extra data. To do this today requires monkeypatching the templater, which I think is the wrong place to perform this modification. This patch extracts the creation of the templater arguments to a standalone function - one that can be monkeypatched by extensions. I would very much like for extensions to be able to inject extra templater parameters into *any* template. However, I'm not sure the best way to facilitate this, as hgweb commands invoke the templater before returning and we want the extensions to have access to rich data structures like the context instances. We need cooperation inside hgweb command functions. The use case screams for something like internal-only "hooks." This is exactly what my (rejected) "events" patch series provided. Perhaps that feature should be reconsidered...

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 bookmark, tag, or branch name. A
bookmark is a movable pointer to a revision. A tag is a permanent name
associated with a revision. A branch name denotes the tipmost open branch head
of that branch - or if they are all closed, the tipmost closed head of the
branch. Bookmark, tag, and branch names must not contain the ":" character.
The reserved name "tip" 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.
