resourceutil: correct the root path for file based lookup under py2exe
This silly copy/paste error caused "Mercurial" to be truncated from
"C:\Program Files". The fact that "helptext" and "defaultrc" are now in a
subpackage of "mercurial" added it back on, and everything seemed to work. But
that broke if not installed to the default directory, and also caused TortoiseHg
to look at Mercurial's config files instead of its own.

rust-cpython: mark all PyLeaked methods as unsafe
Unfortunately, these methods can be abused to obtain the inner 'static
reference. The simplest (pseudo-code) example is:
let leaked: PyLeaked<&'static _> = shared.leak_immutable();
let static_ref: &'static _ = &*leaked.try_borrow(py)?;
// PyLeakedRef::deref() tries to bound the lifetime to itself, but
// the underlying data is a &'static reference, so the returned
// reference can be &'static.
This problem can be easily fixed by coercing the lifetime, but there are
many other ways to achieve that, and there wouldn't be a generic solution:
let leaked: PyLeaked<&'static [_]> = shared.leak_immutable();
let leaked_iter: PyLeaked<slice::Iter<'static, _>>
= unsafe { leaked.map(|v| v.iter()) };
let static_slice: &'static [_] = leaked_iter.try_borrow(py)?.as_slice();
So basically I failed to design the safe borrowing interface. Maybe we'll
instead have to add much more restricted interface on top of the unsafe
PyLeaked methods? For instance, Iterator::next() could be implemented if
its Item type is not &'a (where 'a may be cheated.)
Anyway, this seems not an easy issue, so it's probably better to leave the
current interface as unsafe, and get broader comments while upstreaming this
feature.

rust-cpython: make PySharedRef::try_borrow_mut() return BorrowMutError
As I said, it shouldn't be an error of Python layer, but is something like
a coding error. Returning BorrowMutError makes more sense.
There's a weird hack to propagate the borrow-by-leaked state to RefCell
to obtain BorrowMutError. If we don't like it, maybe we can add our own
BorrowMutError.

rust-cpython: inline PySharedState::leak_immutable() and PyLeaked::new()
For the same reason as the previous patch. The unsafe stuff can be better
documented if these functions are inlined.

rust-cpython: inline PySharedState::try_borrow_mut()
Since the core borrowing/leaking logic has been moved to PySharedRef* and
PyLeaked*, it doesn't make sense that PySharedState had a function named
"try_borrow_mut". Let's turn it into a pure data struct.

rust-cpython: add panicking version of borrow_mut() and use it
The original borrow_mut() is renamed to try_borrow_mut().
Since leak_immutable() no longer incref the borrow count, the caller should
know if the underlying value is borrowed or not. No Python world is involved.
That's why we can simply use the panicking borrow_mut().

setup: don't skip the search for global hg.exe if there is no local instance
The point of trying not to blindly execute `hg` on Windows is that the local
hg.exe would be given precedence, and if py3 isn't on PATH, it errors out with a
modal dialog. But that's not a problem if there is no local executable that
could be run.
The problem that I recently ran into was I upgraded the repo format to use zstd.
But doing a `make clean` deletes all of the supporting libraries, causing the
next run to abort with a message about not understanding the
`revlog-compression-zstd` requirement. By getting rid of the local executable
in the previous commit when cleaning, we avoid leaving a broken executable
around, and avoid the py3 PATH problem too. There is still a small hole in that
`hg.exe` needs to be deleted before switching between py2/py3/PyOxidizer builds,
because the zstd module won't load. But that seems like good hygiene anyway.

make: also delete hg.exe when cleaning
This will be needed for the next patch, which has more details. It has to come
before the call into setup.py because even `python setup.py clean` calls hg to
generate the version file.

merge: start using the per-side copy dicts
The point of this patch is mostly to clarify `manifestmerge()`. I find
it much easier to reason about now.

copies: define a type to return from mergecopies()
We'll soon return two instances of many of the dicts from
`copies.mergecopies()`. That will mean that we need to return 9
different dicts, which is clearly not manageable. This patch instead
encapsulates the 4 dicts we'll duplicate in a new type. For now, we
still just return one instance of it (plus the separate `diverge`
dict).
