rust-status: don't dispatch unknown file when traversing if not listing unknowns

This usually isn't a (functional) problem since we ignore the unknown files
anyway, but when specifically using `hg purge`, unknown files were iterated over
regardless of the option being true.
This is both more correct and more efficient.

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:

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