run-tests: rely on an actual executable in PATH instead of alias for `hg` The alias approach is poorly inherited by other process that the test might spawn. To solve this we use the same approach as for `python`/`python3` we write an executable file explicitly. Doing this fixes `which hg` invocation that now returns the same location as `hg`. Using chg server side has some minor effect on some stdout/stderr ordering when using `chg` as the server too. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11053

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
