rhg: add support for narrow clones and sparse checkouts This adds a minimal support that can be implemented without parsing the narrowspec. We can parse the narrowspec and add support for more operations later. The reason we need so few code changes is as follows: Most operations need no special treatment of sparse because some of them only read dirstate (`rhg files` without `-r`), which bakes in the filtering, some of them only read store (`rhg files -r`, `rhg cat`), and some of them read no data at all (`rhg root`, `rhg debugrequirements`). `status` is the command that might care about sparse, so we just disable rhg on it. For narrow clones, `rhg files` clearly needs the narrowspec to work correctly, so we fall back. `rhg cat` seems to work consistently with `hg cat` if the file exists. If the file is hidden by narrow spec, the error message is different and confusing, so that's something that we should improve in follow-up patches.

Oxidized Mercurial

This project provides a Rust implementation of the Mercurial (hg)
version control tool.

Under the hood, the project uses
PyOxidizer to embed a Python
interpreter in a binary built with Rust. At run-time, the Rust fn main()
is called and Rust code handles initial process startup. An in-process
Python interpreter is started (if needed) to provide additional
functionality.

Building

First, acquire and build a copy of PyOxidizer; you probably want to do this in
some directory outside of your clone of Mercurial:

$ git clone https://github.com/indygreg/PyOxidizer.git
$ cd PyOxidizer
$ cargo build --release

Then build this Rust project using the built pyoxidizer executable:

$ /path/to/pyoxidizer/target/release/pyoxidizer build --release

If all goes according to plan, there should be an assembled application
under build/<arch>/release/app/ with an hg executable:

$ build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/release/app/hg version
Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 5.3.1+433-f99cd77d53dc+20200331)
(see https://mercurial-scm.org for more information)

Running Tests

To run tests with a built hg executable, you can use the --with-hg
argument to run-tests.py. But there's a wrinkle: many tests run custom
Python scripts that need to import modules provided by Mercurial. Since
these modules are embedded in the produced hg executable, a regular
Python interpreter can't access them! To work around this, set PYTHONPATH
to the Mercurial source directory. e.g.:

$ cd /path/to/hg/src/tests
$ PYTHONPATH=`pwd`/.. python3.9 run-tests.py \
    --with-hg `pwd`/../rust/hgcli/build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/release/app/hg
