packaging: move most packaging targets to own Makefile Since we're putting everything packaging under one roof, let's define the make targets related to packaging there as well. I didn't move the "osx" target because it is non-trivial. Some targets did change slightly as part of the move. But it was mostly around path normalization.

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 https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
