tests: move a multi-statement debuglocks hook into a shell script for Windows

Before this patch, a part of "test-push-hook-lock.t" fails unexpectedly on
Windows environment, because semicolon (";") isn't recognized as the command
separator by "cmd.exe".  This is fixed the same way as a similar issue in
7c253c23de3b.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
