Only read .hg/hgrc files from trusted users/groups

The list of trusted users and groups is specified in the [trusted]
section of a hgrc; the current user is always trusted; "*" can be
used to trust all users/groups.

Global hgrc files are always read.

On Windows (and other systems that don't have the pwd and grp modules),
all .hg/hgrc files are read.

This is essentially the same patch that was previously applied as
revision 494521a3f142.

(Unix, Windows) <repo>/.hg/hgrc::
    Per-repository configuration options that only apply in a
    particular repository.  This file is not version-controlled, and
    will not get transferred during a "clone" operation.  Options in
    this file override options in all other configuration files.

SYNTAX
------

A configuration file consists of sections, led by a "[section]" header

    uncompressed streaming clone is a lot faster (~10x) than a regular
    clone.  Over most WAN connections (anything slower than about
    6Mbps), uncompressed streaming is slower, because of the extra
    data transfer overhead.  Default is False.

ui::
  User interface controls.
  debug;;
    Print debugging information.  True or False.  Default is False.

  it belongs to a trusted user or to a trusted group.  This section
  specifies what users and groups are trusted.  The current user is
  always trusted.  To trust everybody, list a user or a group with
  name "*".
