packaging: add Provides: python3-mercurial and Homepage to debian package There are other packages that depend on python3-mercurial, like debian's mercurial-git, so we should mark ourselves as providing it. I compared the control file we generate to the one that the debian maintainers generate, and noticed several differences: - the Homepage bit. I included this, because why not - a more robust Suggests list that includes a graphical merge tool - a more robust Breaks list - debian's Recommends openssh-client, we only Recommends ca-certificates - a split into `mercurial` and `mercurial-common` (and possibly others?) - a slightly different description Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D9983

== New Features ==

 * 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 ==
