packaging: replace dockerlib.sh with a Python script
I want to do some more advanced things with Docker in upcoming
commits. Trying to do that with shell scripts will be a bit too
painful for my liking. Implementing things in Python will be
vastly simpler in the long run.
This commit essentially ports dockerlib.sh to a Python script.
dockerdeb and dockerrpm have been ported to use the new hg-docker
script.
hg-docker requires Python 3. I've only tested on Python 3.5.
Unlike the local packaging scripts which may need to run on old
distros, the Docker packaging scripts don't have these constraints.
So I think it is acceptable to require Python 3.5.
As part of the transition, the Docker image tags changed slightly.
I don't think that's a big deal: the Docker image names are
effectively arbitrary and are a means to an end to achieve
running commands in Docker containers.
The code for resolving the Dockerfile content allows substituting
values passed as arguments. This will be used in a subsequent commit.

packaging: consistently create build user in Dockerfiles
Previously, dockerlib.sh appended some commands to create a
"build" user in each Docker image. The resulting Docker images
could be inconsistent depending on the execution environment
and base image.
With this change, we explicitly create our custom user and
group as the first action in each Dockerfile. The user always
has user:group 1000:1000 and all built images are consistent.
We also create a home directory for the user under /build.
This directory is currently ignored.
As part of this, we stop setting the DBUILDUSER variable in
dockerlib.sh and instead set it in the respective scripts that
call it. This is in preparation for further refactoring of
dockerlib.sh.
