hgweb: run search instead of showing wrong error for ambigious identifier

Before this when multiple changesets hashes in the repos started with the
search query string, error was given that the revision isn't found, and it
was misleading. Now a simple keyword search runs in this case.

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:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

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