Revive svn+http(s) URLs support (issue94)
Telling svn from mercurial repository automatically is not always possible, or
at least not seamlessly. Let 'http://repo.com/svn' be an svn repository,
protected with basic authentication. Trying to clone it directly does something
like:
1- Open it like a mercurial repository:
* send between command, ask for credentials, fail
* fallback to static-http, ask for crendentials two times, fail
2- Open it like an svn repository
Mercurial [auth] facility is helpful here, but few people know about it, and it
may seem weird to store svn credentials in mercurial configuration. An svn-like
password manager would not help either because all connections attempts in [1]
fail and it's unlikely we would store credentials in this situation. Instead,
we can clone 'svn+http://repo.com/svn', which will skip step [1].
