wix: add support for additional wxs files
As with my previous change for an --extra-prebuiild-script, I'm
assuming this is predominantly useful in an enterprise environment
and am only adding this to wix and not also to inno install scripts.

wix: add a hook for a prebuild script to inject extra libraries
I need this to build packages for Google so we can bundle some
extensions in the installed image. My assumption is that this is most
interesting for the .msi images so I only wired it up there. I'm not
thrilled with the interface this provides, but it was an easy way to
retain debug messages on Windows while also having enough structure to
know what lines are actually module names for py2exe.
Still pending on my end: I need to bundle a couple of config files,
and at least one data file. I'm open to advice on how to do those
things, and how to do this better.

compression: introduce an official `format.revlog-compression` option
This option supersedes the `experiment.format.compression` option. The value
currently supported are zlib (default) and zstd (if Mercurial was compiled with
zstd support).
The option gained an explicit reference to `revlog` since this is the target
usage here. Different storage methods might require different compression
strategies.
In our tests, using zstd give a significant CPU usage improvement (both
compression and decompressing) while keeping similar repository size.
Zstd as other interresting mode (dictionnary, pre-text, etc…) that are probably
worth exploring. However, just plain switching from zlib to zstd provide a large
benefit.
