procutil: use unbuffered stdout on Windows

Windows doesn't support line buffering, treating it as fully buffered. This
causes output of slow commands to stutter. We use unbuffered instead.

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

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

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

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

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