help: scripting help topic

There are a lot of non-human consumers of Mercurial. And the challenges
and considerations for machines consuming Mercurial is significantly
different from what humans face.

I think there are enough special considerations around how machines
consume Mercurial that a dedicated help topic is warranted. I concede
the audience for this topic is probably small compared to the general
audience. However, lots of normal Mercurial users do things like create
one-off shell scripts for common workflows that I think this is useful
enough to be in the install (as opposed to, say, a wiki page - which
most users will likely never find).

This text is by no means perfect. But you have to start somewhere. I
think I did cover the important parts, though.

'''measure performance of Mercurial commands

Using ``hgperf`` instead of ``hg`` measures performance of the target
Mercurial command. For example, the execution below measures
performance of :hg:`heads --topo`::

    $ hgperf heads --topo

All command output via ``ui`` is suppressed, and just measurement
result is displayed: see also "perf" extension in "contrib".

Costs of processing before dispatching to the command function like
below are not measured::

    - parsing command line (e.g. option validity check)
    - reading configuration files in

But ``pre-`` and ``post-`` hook invocation for the target command is
measured, even though these are invoked before or after dispatching to
the command function, because these may be required to repeat
execution of the target command correctly.
