hg: Redirect Mercurial stdout/stderr to logging when running as WSGI

Any "console" output from Mercurial when Kallithea is running from WSGI
should end up in Kallithea's logs. That seems like a nice general feature.

This will however also solve another rare but more critical problem:

Mercurial is writing to sys.stdout / sys.stderr, using several layers of
wrapping. Since Mercurial 5.5 (with
https://repo.mercurial-scm.org/hg/rev/8e04607023e5 ), all writes are given a
memoryview.

Apache httpd mod_wsgi is invoking the WSGI with a custom mod_wsgi.Log injected
in sys.stdout / sys.stderr . This logger can however not handle memoryview -
https://github.com/GrahamDumpleton/mod_wsgi/issues/863 .
.. _backup:

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================


Settings
--------

Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.


Whoosh index
------------

The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located


Database
--------

When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.

A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
