lfs: move the tracked file function creation to a method

Once a commitable file format for tracked config is agreed upon, I can't see any
reason to have a config based way to control this.  (Other than convert.  That
will be necessary to override the file when converting to normal files.  Also,
converting to lfs needs this if not splicing the file in at the beginning.  So
maybe the existing config option should be `convert` specific.)  Looking to
hgeol for precedent, it looks like policy that affects how items are stored are
handled only by the tracked file, while policy that affects the checkout can be
handled by either a user config or the tracked file (but the latter takes
precedence).

We probably need a transition period, so this transition policy can be
controlled by the function.  Additionally, it provides a place for convert to
wrap to override the file based config.

# In most cases, the mercurial repository can be read by the bundled hg, but
# that isn't always true because third-party extensions may change the store
# format, for example. In which case, the system hg installation is used.
#
# We want to use the hg version being tested when interacting with the test
# repository, and the system hg when interacting with the mercurial source code
# repository.
#
# The mercurial source repository was typically orignally cloned with the
# system mercurial installation, and may require extensions or settings from
# the system installation.
syshg () {
    (
        syshgenv
        exec hg "$@"
    )
}

# Revert the environment so that running "hg" runs the system hg
# rather than the test hg installation.

# The test-repo is a live hg repository which may have evolution markers
# created, e.g. when a ~/.hgrc enabled evolution.
#
# Tests may be run using a custom HGRCPATH, which do not enable evolution
# markers by default.
#
# If test-repo includes evolution markers, and we do not enable evolution
# markers, hg will occasionally complain when it notices them, which disrupts
# tests resulting in sporadic failures.
#
# Since we aren't performing any write operations on the test-repo, there's
# no harm in telling hg that we support evolution markers, which is what the
# following lines for the hgrc file do:
cat >> "$HGRCPATH" << EOF
[experimental]
evolution = createmarkers
EOF

# Use the system hg command if the bundled hg can't read the repository with
# no warning nor error.
