convert/darcs: handle non-ASCII metadata in darcs changelog (issue2354)

Given a commit author or message with non-ASCII characters in a darcs
repo, convert would raise a UnicodeEncodeError when adding changesets
to the hg changelog.

This happened because etree returns back unicode objects for any text
it can't encode into ASCII. convert was passing these objects to
changelog.add(), which would then attempt encoding.fromlocal() on
them.

This patch ensures converter_source.recode() is called on each piece
of commit data returned by etree.

(Also note that darcs is currently encoding agnostic and will print
out whatever is in a patch's metadata byte-for-byte, even in the XML
changelog.)

adding a
# missing arg
hg cat: invalid arguments
hg cat [OPTION]... FILE...

output the current or given revision of files

    Print the specified files as they were at the given revision. If no
    revision is given, the parent of the working directory is used, or tip if
    no revision is checked out.

    Output may be to a file, in which case the name of the file is given using
    a format string. The formatting rules are the same as for the export
    command, with the following additions:

    "%s"  basename of file being printed
    "%d"  dirname of file being printed, or '.' if in repository root
    "%p"  root-relative path name of file being printed

    Returns 0 on success.

options:

 -o --output FORMAT        print output to file with formatted name
 -r --rev REV              print the given revision
    --decode               apply any matching decode filter
 -I --include PATTERN [+]  include names matching the given patterns
 -X --exclude PATTERN [+]  exclude names matching the given patterns

[+] marked option can be specified multiple times
