level 1 prototypes: model (1) commands (hd_log - like commands)

This mechanism could be called model (1):

(1) Return immedietely after having sent the command to commandserv,
    just wrapping a call to hg_rawcommand().
    Other API functions are provided to retrieve:
    (a) the data sent in response by the commandserv, in parsed
(structured) form
    (b) the exitcode, i.e. the content of the 'r' channel after all things
        have happened.


Some commands must handle huge mass of data. One of those commands is "hg log"
command.

There are also other commands that must handle huge amount of data, in this case
for all of those commands I will use an iterator-like mechanism. The mercurial
command will return immediately, and user will have to get data from iterator
when he whant's.
