lock: fix for Mercurial 3.6+ - wrap hgweb to catch Locked exceptions from hooks
With Mercurial 3.6, the handling of WSGI responses changed. The hook exceptions
are no longer raised directly when app(environ, start_response) is called so
the 'except HTTPLockedRC as e' block in _handle_request (a few lines above )
does not work anymore because the exception happens later.
Therefore I created a wrapper class that can catch the exceptions.
This makes locking work again and fixes lock related tests like
TestVCSOperations.test_clone_after_repo_was_locked_hg which expect certain
output of the hg client in case of an HTTPLockedRC exception.
Depending on how https://bz.mercurial-scm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5232 gets
handled, this fix might become obsolete in the future.

==================
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.
