testing: allow Hypothesis to enable extensions This adds support for testing extensions, including both tests that extensions don't change behaviour and test for specific commands. We use the precondition system to determine what commands are available to us. If we never use any commands enabled by an extension then that extension is *skippable* and should not have changed the behaviour of the test. We thus rerun the test with an environment variable which is designed to turn off the extension.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
