utils: let make_ui return an empty ui.ui() object if the requested hgrc file isn't present

89c30b145bb8 lost an "if repoui" in simplehg, and Kallithea would thus fail on
serving repos without a .hg/hgrc :

File ".../kallithea/lib/middleware/simplehg.py", line 285, in _augment_hgrc
for k, v in repoui.configitems(section):
AttributeError: 'bool' object has no attribute 'configitems'

It is *only* simplehg that invoke make_ui with read_from 'file'. In this case
it could return False if the requested file wasn't present.

It was odd and inconsistent that make_ui with read_from 'file' either returned
an ui object or the value False.

To fix the problem, just let make_ui return the empty ui.ui() if no .hg/hgrc is
present. An ui object that just doesn't have any config sections is much better
than any alternative.

.. _statistics:

=====================
Repository statistics
=====================

Kallithea has a *repository statistics* feature, disabled by default. When
enabled, the amount of commits per committer is visualized in a timeline. This
feature can be enabled using the ``Enable statistics`` checkbox on the
repository ``Settings`` page.

The statistics system makes heavy demands on the server resources, so
in order to keep a balance between usability and performance, statistics are
cached inside the database and gathered incrementally.

When Celery is disabled:

  On each first visit to the summary page a set of 250 commits are parsed and
  added to the statistics cache. This incremental gathering also happens on each
  visit to the statistics page, until all commits are fetched.

  Statistics are kept cached until additional commits are added to the
  repository. In such a case Kallithea will only fetch the new commits when
  updating its statistics cache.

When Celery is enabled:

  On the first visit to the summary page, Kallithea will create tasks that will
  execute on Celery workers. These tasks will gather all of the statistics until
  all commits are parsed. Each task parses 250 commits, then launches a new
  task.
