tests: use the system hg for examining the local repository

Most test scripts use "hg" to interact with a temporary test repository.
However a few tests also want to run hg commands to interact with the local
repository containing the mercurial source code.  Notably, many of the
test-check-* tests want to check local files and commit messages.

These tests were previously using the version of hg being tested to query the
source repository.  However, this will fail if the source repository requires
extensions or other settings not supported by the version of mercurial being
tested.  The source repository was typically initially cloned using the system
hg installation, so we should use the system hg installation to query it.

There was already a helpers-testrepo.sh script designed to help cope with
different requirements for the source repository versus the test repositories.
However, it only handled the evolve extension.  This new behavior works with
any extensions that are different between the system installation and the test
installation.

A new repository uses zlib storage, which doesn't need a requirement

  $ hg init default
  $ cd default
  $ cat .hg/requires
  dotencode
  fncache
  generaldelta
  revlogv1
  store

  $ touch foo
  $ hg -q commit -A -m 'initial commit with a lot of repeated repeated repeated text to trigger compression'
  $ hg debugrevlog -c | grep 0x78
      0x78 (x)  :   1 (100.00%)
      0x78 (x)  : 110 (100.00%)

  $ cd ..

Unknown compression engine to format.compression aborts

  $ hg --config experimental.format.compression=unknown init unknown
  abort: compression engine unknown defined by experimental.format.compression not available
  (run "hg debuginstall" to list available compression engines)
  [255]

A requirement specifying an unknown compression engine results in bail

  $ hg init unknownrequirement
  $ cd unknownrequirement
  $ echo exp-compression-unknown >> .hg/requires
  $ hg log
  abort: repository requires features unknown to this Mercurial: exp-compression-unknown!
  (see https://mercurial-scm.org/wiki/MissingRequirement for more information)
  [255]

  $ cd ..

#if zstd

  $ hg --config experimental.format.compression=zstd init zstd
  $ cd zstd
  $ cat .hg/requires
  dotencode
  exp-compression-zstd
  fncache
  generaldelta
  revlogv1
  store

  $ touch foo
  $ hg -q commit -A -m 'initial commit with a lot of repeated repeated repeated text'

  $ hg debugrevlog -c | grep 0x28
      0x28      :  1 (100.00%)
      0x28      : 98 (100.00%)

  $ cd ..

Specifying a new format.compression on an existing repo won't introduce data
with that engine or a requirement

  $ cd default
  $ touch bar
  $ hg --config experimental.format.compression=zstd -q commit -A -m 'add bar with a lot of repeated repeated repeated text'

  $ cat .hg/requires
  dotencode
  fncache
  generaldelta
  revlogv1
  store

  $ hg debugrevlog -c | grep 0x78
      0x78 (x)  :   2 (100.00%)
      0x78 (x)  : 199 (100.00%)
