tests: fix test-chg to ignore a warning about being unable to set locale This is apparently coming from bash when bash is providing the sh that we're using to execute the .sh file generated by run-tests for this test.

branch: delete obsolete message about changing branch of obsolete commit We now rely on `rewriteutil.precheck()` to check for divergence, so we don't need the extra check in `cmdutil.changebranch()`. The former check is a little less strict in that it allows you to rewrite a commit without non-obsolete successors. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10519

rewriteutil: check for divergence This code is adapted from the code in the evolve extension. It seems to be equivalent as far as the evolve extension's test suite can tell (the only impact when making their `precheck()` delegate to our version is that error messages are less detailed). I had to change the error message to work with "change branch of" being inserted as the action. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10518

rewriteutil: adapt "cannot %s while merging" to work with "change branch of" `rewriteutil.precheck()` creates error messages by inserting a given verb into a sentence. The `hg branch -r` command passes in "change branch of" as the verb. That doesn't work well with "cannot %s while merging" (making it "cannot change branch of while merging"). Let's insert a "changeset" there to make it work better. Building sentences like this seems obviously bad for i18n, but fixing that is out of scope for this series, IMO.

rewriteutil: point to help about instability when rewriting creates orphan This replicates the message from the evolve extension. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10517

help: add topic about evolution, based on text from evolve extension I've taken the text produced by `hg help evolution` when the evolve extension is enabled and made that available by the same command with just hg core. Changes I've made: * Added "(EXPERIMENTAL)" to the title. (That doesn't hide the topic from `hg help`, though.) * Replaced old-style `experimental.evolution=<names>` config by new-style `experimental.evolution.<name>=true`. * Replaces a "obsolete markers" by "obsolescence markers". * Removed most content from "Current feature status". When the evolve extension is enabled, its help text takes precedence. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10516

rewriteutil: add devel warning if precheck is called with contexts I'm trying to upstream parts from the evolve extension. This check exists there. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10515

rewriteutil: replace "null changeset" by "the null revision" in error message The evolve extension uses "the null revision" and we seem to use that term much more frequently in core too. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10514

relnotes: copy contents of "next" to "5.8" and clear "next" The same procedure as every year^Wcycle. Unlike previous cycles, I haven't actually recorded the copy because we don't want to propagate further changes in "next" (from the stable branch) to "5.8".
