packaging: rename hgrc.d to defaultrc for Windows config files next to the exe

The code and the help still says that it will read hgrc.d next to the
executable.  But this directory needs to exist to read the resource based config
files.  Otherwise even `hg version` errors out:

    $ /c/Program\ Files/Mercurial/hg.exe version
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "hg", line 43, in <module>
