packaging: support building Inno installer with PyOxidizer
We want to start distributing Mercurial on Python 3 on
Windows. PyOxidizer will be our vehicle for achieving that.
This commit implements basic support for producing Inno
installers using PyOxidizer.
While it is an eventual goal of PyOxidizer to produce
installers, those features aren't yet implemented. So our
strategy for producing Mercurial installers is similar to
what we've been doing with py2exe: invoke a build system to
produce files then stage those files into a directory so they
can be turned into an installer.
We had to make significant alterations to the pyoxidizer.bzl
config file to get it to produce the files that we desire for
a Windows install. This meant differentiating the build targets
so we can target Windows specifically.
We've added a new module to hgpackaging to deal with interacting
with PyOxidizer. It is similar to pyexe: we invoke a build process
then copy files to a staging directory. Ideally these extra
files would be defined in pyoxidizer.bzl. But I don't think it
is worth doing at this time, as PyOxidizer's config files are
lacking some features to make this turnkey.
The rest of the change is introducing a variant of the
Inno installer code that invokes PyOxidizer instead of
py2exe.
Comparing the Python 2.7 based Inno installers with this
one, the following changes were observed:
* No lib/*.{pyd, dll} files
* No Microsoft.VC90.CRT.manifest
* No msvc{m,p,r}90.dll files
* python27.dll replaced with python37.dll
* Add vcruntime140.dll file
The disappearance of the .pyd and .dll files is acceptable, as
PyOxidizer has embedded these in hg.exe and loads them from
memory.
The disappearance of the *90* files is acceptable because those
provide the Visual C++ 9 runtime, as required by Python 2.7.
Similarly, the appearance of vcruntime140.dll is a requirement
of Python 3.7.

packaging: split Inno installer building from Mercurial building
We want to make the logic for producing the installer agnostic about
how Mercurial is built to allow for alternate build methods (like
PyOxidizer).

packaging: remove pyoxidizer.bzl from packaging directory
We have another version in rust/hgcli that is more modern
and is already associated with our Rust CLI project.

contrib: install PyOxidizer in Linux and Windows environments
For Linux, this was trivial.
For Windows, we need to teach the powershell script to install
Rust as well. This was also pretty straightforward.

diff: re-establish linear runtime performance
The previous method with sum() and list() creates a new list object
for every hunk. Then sum() is used to flatten out this sequence of
lists. The sum() function is not "lazy", but creates a new list object
for every "+" operation and so this code had quadratic runtime behaviour.
copies: fix the changeset based algorithm regarding merge
In
99ebde4fec99, we changed the list of files stored into the `files` field.
This lead to the changeset centric copy algorithm to break in various merge
situation involving merge. Older information could reach the merge through
`p1`, and while information from `p2` was strictly fresher, it would get
overwritten anyway.
We update the situation with more details about which revision introduces rename
information. This help use making the right decision in case of merge.
We are now running a more comprehensive suite of test with include this kind of
situation. The behavior differ slightly from the filelog based in a couple of
instance. There is mostly two distinct cases:
1) there are conflicting rename information in a merge (different rename history
on each side). In this case the filelog based implementation arbitrarily pick a
side based on the file-revision-number. So it depends on a local factor. The
changeset centric algorithm will use a deterministic approach, by picking the
information coming from the first parent of the merge. This is stable across
different clone.
2) rename information related to file that exist in both source and destination.
The filelog based implementation do not even try to detect these, however the
changeset centric one get them for "free" (it is simpler to detect them than
not).
The new implementation focus on correctness. Performance improvement will come
later.
