hg: add support for HGUNICODEPEDANTRY environment variable This lets us easily verify that there are no implicit conversions between unicodes and bytes in Mercurial's codebase. Based on something mpm did by hand periodically, but it kept regressing, so just open the door to running it in a buildbot.

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install:

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing:

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
