rPHU3b087892148d: Consolidate binary (hg, git, svn) analysis code into one place

Summary

Ref T12942. Currently, we have a bunch of code spread out all over the place for doing version tests on hg, svn, and git.

Consolidate this code a bit so we can use it to drive a new section on the "Version Information" page showing the installed versions (and paths) for binaries.

The primary goal is to reduce the support burden a little bit. Two particular issues are:

Various stuff with old (or new) VCS binaries, mostly Mercurial.
Cases where the webserver sees a different binary than sudoers specifies.

These should be easier to spot with binaries in the version info.

Test Plan

Added unit tests, see also next change. Eventual result is this:

Also Pygmentize and nodejs?

Also, what happens if different servers in the cluster have different versions of git?

Support pygmentize.
Node is a whole separate mess, and not something we execute from the web, so skip it for now.

😀

Also, what happens if different servers in the cluster have different versions of git?

In theory, we could enumerate every device assigned to a repository service in Almanac and query all of them for binary versions and paths to detect this. I'm inclined to wait until this actually happens before pursuing it, though.
