test-check-code: fail new commits which use 'atexit' instead of 'ui.atexit'

Callbacks registered with 'atexit' are sometimes not called (like when
hg aborts and calls os._exit). On the other hand, callbacks registered with
'ui.atexit' are called in most cases. Therefore, encouraging the use of
'ui.atexit' by failing the test 'test-check-code.t' appropriately.

Test Plan:
Ran the test 'test-check-code.t' after importing 'atexit' in one of
the py files and confirmed that the test fails.
