tests: make check-py3-compat.py actually load the specified files correctly

For most uses, this change is essentially a no-op, as this script is generally
only run by test-check-py3-compat.t, which will already put `$TESTDIR/..` in
`$PYTHONPATH`.

When running outside of tests, however, `$PYTHONPATH` is likely not set, causing
check-py3-compat.py to parse the file from the repo, but then import the
installed version, and raise any errors about the installed version, not the one
currently in the repo.

Additionally, this helps users (like me) who have a strange set up where their
home directory (and thus their hg repos) happen to be in a subdirectory of
sys.prefix (which is /usr on my system). Since the '.' entry added to sys.path
takes precedence over the absolute path of `$TESTDIR/..` in `$PYTHONPATH`, the
path to the modules that it imports (and that show up in any stack trace) are
*relative*, meaning that we don't detect them as starting with `sys.prefix`.

Sample non-test invocation, and the difference this change makes (the path for
'error at <path>:<line>' is correct now)::

Before:
```
$ python3 contrib/check-py3-compat.py mercurial/win*.py
mercurial/win32.py: error importing: <ValueError> _type_ 'v' not supported (error at check-py3-compat.py:65)
mercurial/windows.py: error importing: <ModuleNotFoundError> No module named 'msvcrt' (error at check-py3-compat.py:65)
```

After:
```
$ python3 contrib/check-py3-compat.py mercurial/win*.py
mercurial/win32.py: error importing: <ValueError> _type_ 'v' not supported (error at win32.py:11)
mercurial/windows.py: error importing: <ModuleNotFoundError> No module named 'msvcrt' (error at windows.py:12)
```

Synopsis
""""""""
**hg-ssh** repositories...

Description
"""""""""""
**hg-ssh** is a wrapper for ssh access to a limited set of mercurial repos.

To be used in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys with the "command" option, see sshd(8):
command="hg-ssh path/to/repo1 /path/to/repo2 ~/repo3 ~user/repo4" ssh-dss ...
(probably together with these other useful options:
no-port-forwarding,no-X11-forwarding,no-agent-forwarding)

This allows pull/push over ssh from/to the repositories given as arguments.

If all your repositories are subdirectories of a common directory, you can
allow shorter paths with:
command="cd path/to/my/repositories && hg-ssh repo1 subdir/repo2"

You can use pattern matching of your normal shell, e.g.:
command="cd repos && hg-ssh user/thomas/* projects/{mercurial,foo}"

You can also add a --read-only flag to allow read-only access to a key, e.g.:
command="hg-ssh --read-only repos/\*"
