patch: turned strings with backslashes into raw strings
In Python, the backslash in an unrecognized escape sequence is left
behind, which makes '\.' the same as r'\.'. Relying on this feature is
quite brittle, IMHO.
Removed unnecessary string concatenation as well.
Make util.find_exe alway returns existing file, fixing
issue1459
It seems like the old behaviour with different handling for commands with and
without path was intended, but I think this behaviour of util.find_exe is
better:
* Always returns existing file
* or None if command not found - no default
* Windows: Returned file thus always ends with extension from PATHEXT
This fixes http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/bts/
issue1459. The change might
fix other unintended behaviour too.

Some tests of merge-tools configuration and selection, mostly excercising

Account for symlinks when setting up HGTMP.
On Mac OS X, several top-level directories are actually symlinks into
/private. When setting up HGTMP, expand the symlinks so that later
comparisons to or substituations with the actual path work as expected.
mq: allow qclone's -p option to use path alias
Add support for running 'hg qclone -p foo bar' where foo is a path
alias defined in the [paths] section of an hgrc file.
branch closing: permit closing the default branch
There was no good reason to special case the 'default' branch.
Allow the 'default' branch to be closed if the user wants it.
If you're uncomfortable about mistakenly closing the default branch,
you can always reopen the branch by commiting a "normal" changeset onto
the closed branch.
