tests: handle Message-Id line wrapping in test-notify-changegroup.t This fixes this test on Python 3 with a long hostname. See changeset 4128ffba4431 for details.

py3: define and use json.loads polyfill Python 3.5's json.loads() requires a str. Only Python 3.6+ supports passing a bytes or bytearray. This commit implements a json.loads() polyfill on Python 3.5 so that we can use bytes. The added function to detect encodings comes verbatim from Python 3.7.

contrib: require Python 3.6 for byteify-strings.py This script makes use of `token.COMMENT`, which apparently isn't present until Python 3.6. So make the script and its test conditional on Python 3.6.

demandimportpy3: only use lazy extension loader on Python 3.6+ There was an inline comment denoting a bug in the lazy extension loader on Python 3.5 which prevents it from working there. But the code was not conditional on the Python version. The result of this was a myriad of failures on Python 3.5 due to getattr() and friends not working on lazy extension modules. By making extension modules non-lazy on Python 3.5, we reduce the number of test failures from 48 to 22 on that Python version.

ui: flush before prompting for input with readline I was using `hg absorb` with Python 3 and noticed that the prompt was appearing without any output about what would be done. After I answered the prompt, the output was printed to stdout. This appears to be a buffering difference between Python 2 and Python 3. To work around it, this commit adds an explicit flush() before calling the raw input function when readline is used.

histedit: restore hex nodeids to be 12 digits long I accidentally switched from 12 digits to 40 digits while making the code py3-compatible. Thanks to Yuya for noticing. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7200

tests: fix typo "includfe" Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7180

py3: fix fsmonitor's _watchmantofsencoding exception message encoding Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7190

py3: use native strings as keys into **opts in chistedit Now you should be able to successfully confirm your histedit plan (at least in the case I tried). Even continuing after conflicts and finishing the histedit worked. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7186

py3: open chistedit file in binary mode using vfs We write bytes to the file, so it should be open in binary mode. Opening it via the vfs takes care of that for us. Now you'll get yet a different traceback if you try to confirm you histedit plan. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7185

py3: avoid another b''.format() in chistedit Now you'll get a different traceback if you try to confirm you histedit plan. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7184

py3: render message about conflicts in chistedit code Now you can also reorder commits that (potentially) conflict. Just don't try to confirm the changes yet (because then it crashes). Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7183

py3: handle keypresses in chistedit Now you can navigate and change the action for a commit. You can also reorder commits, as long as that doesn't result in a conflict (then it crashes). Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7182

py3: make chistedit render Now you can see the list of commits, but it crashes when you press a key. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7181

py3: fix exception display encoding in contrib/simplemerge.py Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7191
