utils: move the `dirs` definition in pathutil (API)

Before this change, the `dirs` class was accessible through the `mercurial.util`
module. That module is expected to stay free of scm specific content.

The `pathutil` destination has been selection by Martin von Zweigbergk.

This work is part of a refactoring to unify the revlog index and the nodemap.
This unification prepare the use of a persistent nodemap.

== New Features ==

 * The amend extension supports the `--currentuser` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--close-branch` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--secret` argument.

 * The uncommit extension supports the `rewrite.update-timestamp` config option.

== New Experimental Features ==


== Bug Fixes  ==


== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==

 * A shell that supports `$(command)`` syntax for command substitution is now
   required for running the test suite. The test runner normally uses
   `sh`, so if that is a shell that doesn't support `$(command)` syntax,
   you can override it by setting `$HGTEST_SHELL` or by passing it to
   `run-tests.py --shell <shell>`.

 * The (experimental) narrow extension's wire protocol changed. If
   you're using it, you'll need to make sure to upgrade server and
   client at the same time.

== Internal API Changes ==
