hooks: introduce a `:run-with-plain` option for hooks

This option control if HGPLAIN should be set or not for the hooks. This is the
first step to give user some control of the HGPLAIN setting for they hooks.

Some hooks (eg: consistency checking) deserve to be run with HGPLAIN, some other
(eg: user set visual helper) might need to respect the user config and setting.

So both usage are valid and we need to restore the ability to run -without-
HGPLAIN that got lost in Mercurial 5.7.

This does not offer a way to restore the pre-5.7 behavior yet (respect whatever
HGPLAIN setting from the shell), this will be dealt with in the next changeset.

The option name is a bit verbose because implementing this highlighs the need
for another option: `:run-if-plain`. That would make it possible for some hooks
to be easily disabled if HG PLAIN is set. However such option would be a new
feature, not something introduced to mitigate a behavior change introduced in
5.7, so the `:run-if-plain` option belong to the default branch and is not part
of this series.

Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D9981

== New Features ==

 * Windows will process hgrc files in %PROGRAMDATA%\Mercurial\hgrc.d.


== New Experimental Features ==


== Bug Fixes  ==

 * The `indent()` template function was documented to not indent empty lines,
   but it still indented the first line even if it was empty. It no longer does
   that.

== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==


== Internal API Changes ==

 * Matcher instances no longer have a `explicitdir` property. Consider
   rewriting your code to use `repo.wvfs.isdir()` and/or
   `ctx.hasdir()` instead. Also, the `traversedir` property is now
   also called when only `explicitdir` used to be called. That may
   mean that you can simply remove the use of `explicitdir` if you
   were already using `traversedir`.

 * The `revlog.nodemap` object have been merged into the `revlog.index` object.
   * `n in revlog.nodemap` becomes `revlog.index.has_node(n)`,
   * `revlog.nodemap[n]` becomes `revlog.index.rev(n)`,
   * `revlog.nodemap.get(n)` becomes `revlog.index.get_rev(n)`.

 * `copies.duplicatecopies()` was renamed to
   `copies.graftcopies()`. Its arguments changed from revision numbers
   to context objects. It also lost its `repo` and `skip` arguments
   (they should no longer be needed).
