hgcli: customize for Mercurial
Now that we have a shiny new PyOxidizer-based hgcli project, let's
customize it for Mercurial!
This commit replaces the auto-generated pyoxidizer.bzl with one
that installs Mercurial from the local source repository.
A README.md with build instructions has been added.
The Cargo.toml file has been updated to reflect the proper license
and reference the added README.md.
In my Linux environment, running the test suite yields 27 failures.
It's worth noting the run time of the test harness on Linux on my
Ryzen 3950X:
before: 378s wall; 9982s user; 1195s sys
after: 353s wall; 8996s user; 958s sys
% orig: 93.4 wall; 90.1 user; 80.2 sys
While I haven't measured explicitly, I suspect the performance win is
due to in-memory resource loading (which is known to be faster than
Python's filesystem importer).

hgcli: add stub PyOxidizer project
Using commit
c772a1379c3026314eda1c8ea244b86c0658951d of
PyOxidizer, I ran `pyoxidizer init-rust-project hgcli` to
create a stub Rust project. The only modifications I made from
what that command produced are:
* Update location of pyembed crate to PyOxidizer's Git repository.
* Removed some trailing whitespace from pyoxidizer.bzl
* Added auto-generated Cargo.lock file
Subsequent commits will modify the stub project to Mercurial's
needs.

hgcli: remove legacy project
This code is a logical precursor to PyOxidizer. It is now
defunct.
