committablectx: cache _status in _poststatus

A future patch will remove the old workingctx.status which caches the status of
the working directory, therefore we now cache this status in the poststatus
hook of committablectx.

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.
