tests: lines with largefile .* file://$TESTTMP also match on windows

on windows, largefile paths are written as "file:///C:/temp/...", corresponding
to "file:///$TESTTMP/..." (all three slashes shown).
But on posix systems they are written as "file:///tmp/..." corresponding to
"file://$TESTTMP/..." (only two slashes shown).

Write the glob "file:/*/" to match both versions.

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.
