wireproto: add request IDs to frames One of my primary goals with the new wire protocol is to make operations faster and enable both client and server-side operations to scale to multiple CPU cores. One of the ways we make server interactions faster is by reducing the number of round trips to that server. With the existing wire protocol, the "batch" command facilitates executing multiple commands from a single request payload. The way it works is the requests for multiple commands are serialized. The server executes those commands sequentially then serializes all their results. As an optimization for reducing round trips, this is very effective. The technical implementation, however, is pretty bad and suffers from a number of deficiencies. For example, it creates a new place where authorization to run a command must be checked. (The lack of this checking in older Mercurial releases was CVE-2018-1000132.) The principles behind the "batch" command are sound. However, the execution is not. Therefore, I want to ditch "batch" in the new wire protocol and have protocol level support for issuing multiple requests in a single round trip. This commit introduces support in the frame-based wire protocol to facilitate this. We do this by adding a "request ID" to each frame. If a server sees frames associated with different "request IDs," it handles them as separate requests. All of this happening possibly as part of the same message from client to server (the same request body in the case of HTTP). We /could/ model the exchange the way pipelined HTTP requests do, where the server processes requests in order they are issued and received. But this artifically constrains scalability. A better model is to allow multi-requests to be executed concurrently and for responses to be sent and handled concurrently. So the specification explicitly allows this. There is some work to be done around specifying dependencies between multi-requests. We take the easy road for now and punt on this problem, declaring that if order is important, clients must not issue the request until responses to dependent requests have been received. This commit focuses on the boilerplate of implementing the request ID. The server reactor still can't manage multiple, in-flight request IDs. This will be addressed in a subsequent commit. Because the wire semantics have changed, we bump the version of the media type. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2869

/*
 mpatch.c - efficient binary patching for Mercurial

 This implements a patch algorithm that's O(m + nlog n) where m is the
 size of the output and n is the number of patches.

 Given a list of binary patches, it unpacks each into a hunk list,
 then combines the hunk lists with a treewise recursion to form a
 single hunk list. This hunk list is then applied to the original
 text.

 The text (or binary) fragments are copied directly from their source
 Python objects into a preallocated output string to avoid the
 allocation of intermediate Python objects. Working memory is about 2x
 the total number of hunks.
