packaging: prepare version 9.2.1

packaging: update changelog

manifest: exclude the gitlab file (oops)

branching: merge with stable

py3: return unicode from setup.py's get_version py3 expects the version number for eggs to be unicode, so despite 9.2.0 being the first evolve release with beta py3 support it isn't currently pip installable since it dies with: File "*/setuptools/command/egg_info.py", line *, in tagged_version return safe_version(version + self.vtags) TypeError: can't concat str to bytes The `setup.py install` test added in a previous commit should cover this since it died in a different but similar way before.

py3: remove smartquotes from README They break running setup.py with py3 but only in tests, because in the test environment `locale.getpreferredencoding()` is ANSI_X3.4-1968, so the file is `open()`ed with that as the encoding. An alternative for fixing this would be to make the `open()` call with `encoding='utf-8'` under py3, which would be safe against any future non-ascii in README.

setup: make runnable from other dirs Currently it fails when run in that way for two reasons: - the description is loaded from the README file but with a path relative to the working directory - module references have the same issue, which is fixed with package_dir.

setup: add a test for running setup.py `python3 -m pip install hg-evolve==9.2.0` currently fails, despite 9.2.0 being the first beta py3 release, because of unicode issues with the version number. `setup.py install` is a proxy test for pip install since it also suffers from similar, however the test currently fails due to running setup.py from a different directory to the one it is in. Also add a test for `hg version -v` with evolve enabled since a naive first solution for the pip issue was to just change `__version__` to a `u''` string, but that busts version display in `version -v`, which isn't currently picked up by tests.

gitlab-ci: be bold and try to run the full test in them This is a basic version that should work reasonably well. The setup is a bit costly and the cleanup is not guaranteed yet.

gitlab-ci: basic test with flake8 Let us step into the future.
