profiling: use vendored statprof and upstream enhancements (BC)

Now that the statprof module is vendored and suitable for use, we
switch our statprof profiler to use it. This required some changes
because of API changes between the official statprof profiler and
our vendored copy.

We also incorporate Facebook's improvements from the "statprofext"
extension at
https://bitbucket.org/facebook/hg-experimental, notably support for
different display formats.

Because statprof output is different, this is marked as BC. Although
most users likely won't notice since most users don't profile.

     ``ls``
       Use Python's built-in instrumenting profiler. This profiler
       works on all platforms, but each line number it reports is the
       first line of a function. This restriction makes it difficult to
       identify the expensive parts of a non-trivial function.
     ``stat``
-      Use a third-party statistical profiler, statprof. This profiler
-      currently runs only on Unix systems, and is most useful for
-      profiling commands that run for longer than about 0.1 seconds.

 ``format``
     Profiling format.  Specific to the ``ls`` instrumenting profiler.

     ``text``
       Generate a profiling report. When saving to a file, it should be
       noted that only the report is saved, and the profiling data is
       not kept.
     ``kcachegrind``
       Format profiling data for kcachegrind use: when saving to a
       file, the generated file can directly be loaded into
       kcachegrind.

 ``frequency``
     Sampling frequency.  Specific to the ``stat`` sampling profiler.

 ``output``
     File path where profiling data or report should be saved. If the
     file exists, it is replaced. (default: None, data is printed on
