doc: use reStructuredText for man and HTML pages
The Makefile now requires the rst2html and rst2man programs. Both can
be found in Debian testing or downloaded from the Docutils homepage:
http://docutils.sf.net/
http://docutils.sf.net/sandbox/manpage-writer/
The new HTML and man pages no longer contain huge amounts of
un-wrapping literal blocks, thanks to how snippets of reStructuredText
can easily be included inside other reStructuredText documents.
The HTML pages now have anchors for all sections, including the help
topics in hgrc.1 which were missing from the old HTML pages.

==== hg ==== --------------------------------------- Mercurial source code management system --------------------------------------- :Author: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> :Organization: Mercurial :Manual section: 1 :Manual group: Mercurial Manual SYNOPSIS -------- **hg** *command* [*option*]... [*argument*]... DESCRIPTION ----------- The *hg* command provides a command line interface to the Mercurial system. COMMAND ELEMENTS ---------------- files... indicates one or more filename or relative path filenames; see "FILE NAME PATTERNS" for information on pattern matching path indicates a path on the local machine revision indicates a changeset which can be specified as a changeset revision number, a tag, or a unique substring of the changeset hash value repository path either the pathname of a local repository or the URI of a remote repository. .. include:: hg.1.gendoc.txt FILES ----- `.hgignore` This file contains regular expressions (one per line) that describe file names that should be ignored by *hg*. For details, see *hgignore(5)*. `.hgtags` This file contains changeset hash values and text tag names (one of each separated by spaces) that correspond to tagged versions of the repository contents. `/etc/mercurial/hgrc`, `$HOME/.hgrc`, `.hg/hgrc` This file contains defaults and configuration. Values in `.hg/hgrc` override those in `$HOME/.hgrc`, and these override settings made in the global `/etc/mercurial/hgrc` configuration. See *hgrc(5)* for details of the contents and format of these files. Some commands (e.g. revert) produce backup files ending in `.orig`, if the `.orig` file already exists and is not tracked by Mercurial, it will be overwritten. BUGS ---- Probably lots, please post them to the mailing list (See Resources below) when you find them.
