packaging: allow running packaging with custom uid+gid for CentOS rpmbuild in CentOS 7 has a bug causing rpmbuild to fail with "Bad owner/group" if spec or source files are owned by a different user: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/issues/2 This makes it very annoying to try and build the CentOS RPMs on CentOS with Docker. As an alternative, this change makes it possible to do so, using an environment variable. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5571

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
