hg: establish function for performing post-share actions

As part of writing an extension that wished to share an arbitrary piece
of data among shared repos, I had to reimplement a significant part of
hg.share in order to obtain localrepository instances for the source
and destination.

This patch establishes a function in hg.py that will be called after a
share is performed. It is passed localrepository instances so extensions
can easily perform additional actions at share time. We move hgrc and
shared file writing there because this function is a logical place for
it.

A side effect of the refactor is writing of the shared file now occurs
before updating. This seems more appropriate and shouldn't have any
impact on real world behavior.

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
