Summary:
Ref T2230. The SVN protocol has a sensible protocol format with a good spec here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/subversion/libsvn_ra_svn/protocol
Particularly, compare this statement to the clown show that is the Mercurial wire protocol:
> It is possible to parse an item without knowing its type in advance.
WHAT A REASONABLE STATEMENT TO BE ABLE TO MAKE ABOUT A WIRE PROTOCOL
Although it makes substantially more sense than Mercurial, it's much heavier-weight than the Git or Mercurial protocols, since it isn't distributed.
It's also not possible to figure out if a request is a write request (or even which repository it is against) without proxying some of the protocol frames. Finally, several protocol commands embed repository URLs, and we need to reach into the protocol and translate them.
Test Plan: Ran various SVN commands over SSH (`svn log`, `svn up`, `svn commit`, etc).

Summary:
Ref T2230. This is substantially more complicated than Git, but mostly because Mercurial's protocol is a like 50 ad-hoc extensions cobbled together. Because we must decode protocol frames in order to determine if a request is read or write, 90% of this is implementing a stream parser for the protocol.
Mercurial's own parser is simpler, but relies on blocking reads. Since we don't even have methods for blocking reads right now and keeping the whole thing non-blocking is conceptually better, I made the parser nonblocking. It ends up being a lot of stuff. I made an effort to cover it reasonably well with unit tests, and to make sure we fail closed (i.e., reject requests) if there are any parts of the protocol I got wrong.
A lot of the complexity is sharable with the HTTP stuff, so it ends up being not-so-bad, just very hard to verify by inspection as clearly correct.
Test Plan:
- Ran `hg clone` over SSH.
- Ran `hg fetch` over SSH.
- Ran `hg push` over SSH, to a read-only repo (error) and a read-write repo (success).

Summary:
Ref T2230. In Git, we can determine if a command is read-only or read/write from the command itself, but this isn't the case in Mercurial or SVN.
For Mercurial and SVN, we need to proxy the protocol that's coming over the wire, look at each request from the client, and then check if it's a read or a write. To support this, provide a more flexible version of `passthruIO`.
The way this will work is:
- The SSH IO channel is wrapped in a `ProtocolChannel` which can parse the the incoming stream into message objects.
- The `willWriteCallback` will look at those messages and determine if they're reads or writes.
- If they're writes, it will check for write permission.
- If we're good to go, the message object is converted back into a byte stream and handed to the underlying command.
Test Plan: Executed `git clone`, `git clone --depth 3`, `git push` (against no-write repo, got error), `git push` (against valid repo).
