rhg: remember the inode of .hg/dirstate
This allows us to detect changes of `.hg/dirstate`, which is either the
full dirstate (in dirstate-v1) or the docket file (v2) without relying on
data inside the file. It only works on UNIX systems.
This fixes a race condition for dirstate-v1 (as demonstrated by
the test changes) and adds a confortable layer of sanity for dirstate-v2.

Mercurial ========= Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool for software developers. Basic install:: $ make # see install targets $ make install # do a system-wide install $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup $ hg # see help Running without installing:: $ make local # build for inplace usage $ ./hg --version # should show the latest version See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information. Notes for packagers =================== Mercurial ships a copy of the python-zstandard sources. This is used to provide support for zstd compression and decompression functionality. The module is not intended to be replaced by the plain python-zstandard nor is it intended to use a system zstd library. Patches can result in hard to diagnose errors and are explicitly discouraged as unsupported configuration.
