tests: Remove metaprogramming constructs for vcs test classes (issue #309):
- Removed use of the globals() and type() constructs to
programatically instantiate Git/Mercurial-specific test
classes. This should make it a bit clearer what tests are being run
at the expense of possible future VCS additions.
- Removed the SCM_TESTS VCS test configuration variable, since it got
removed. Previously it was used for instantiating test classes.
- Updated small snippet of inline documentation that described the use
of SCM_TESTS variable. New text points to inheriting from generic
test classes instead.
- base.py had a dead snippet - kill it.

==================
Repository locking
==================
Kallithea has a *repository locking* feature, disabled by default. When
enabled, every initial clone and every pull gives users (with write permission)
the exclusive right to do a push.
When repository locking is enabled, repositories get a ``locked`` flag.
The hg/git commands ``hg/git clone``, ``hg/git pull``,
and ``hg/git push`` influence this state:
- A ``clone`` or ``pull`` action locks the target repository
if the user has write/admin permissions on this repository.
- Kallithea will remember the user who locked the repository so only this
specific user can unlock the repo by performing a ``push``
command.
- Every other command on a locked repository from this user and every command
from any other user will result in an HTTP return code 423 (Locked).
Additionally, the HTTP error will mention the user that locked the repository
(e.g., “repository <repo> locked by user <user>”).
Each repository can be manually unlocked by an administrator from the
repository settings menu.
