help: teach loaddoc to load from a different directory

The help system currently only supports showing help topics from a
single directory. We'll need to teach it to show results from
different directories in order to show the internals topics.

The first step is to teach loaddoc() to load documentation from
a sub-directory.

# Extract version number into 4 parts, some of which may be empty:
#
# version: the numeric part of the most recent tag. Will always look like 1.3.
#
# type: if an rc build, "rc", otherwise empty
#
# distance: the distance from the nearest tag, or empty if built from a tag
#
# node: the node|short hg was built from, or empty if built from a tag
gethgversion() {
    make clean
    make local || make local PURE=--pure
    HG="$PWD/hg"

    $HG version > /dev/null || { echo 'abort: hg version failed!'; exit 1 ; }

    hgversion=`$HG version | sed -ne 's/.*(version \(.*\))$/\1/p'`

    if echo $hgversion | grep + > /dev/null 2>&1 ; then
        tmp=`echo $hgversion | cut -d+ -f 2`
        hgversion=`echo $hgversion | cut -d+ -f 1`
        distance=`echo $tmp | cut -d- -f 1`
        node=`echo $tmp | cut -d- -f 2`
    else
        distance=''
        node=''

    if echo $hgversion | grep -- '-' > /dev/null 2>&1; then
        version=`echo $hgversion | cut -d- -f1`
        type=`echo $hgversion | cut -d- -f2`
    else
