evolve: improve error message if unstable changes are disallowed
I saw a question on stackoverflow why evolve reports something like cannot
fold chain not ending with head. Even I was confused the first time about the
behavior. The error message can be improved to avoid confusion to people who
are unaware about the config in future.
That sounds like a very useful information. It sucks that the errors
have newlines in them. I think we can avoid it - see my inline comments.
Yet, improving that message is a good idea. As mateuz pointed, we avoid
new line in error message:
https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/UIGuideline#error_message
In this case pointing to some help about the config would be a good idea
(this might involve creating such help o:-) )
Thanks for finding it and working on this.
