Summary

.. api::

`mercurial.hg.update*` and `mercurial.merge.update` now expect a value
from a set of NAMED_CONSTANTS (`merge.UPDATECHECK_*` constants)
rather than a collection of magic strings. As of now, the values
are the same, but code should be prepared for these values to
change in the future.
