REVISION SUMMARY
  The few places I've modified so far to respect ui.relative-paths have
  traditionally defaulted showing the path from the repo root. However,
  some commands (at least `hg files`) default to showing paths relative
  to the cwd. Let's allow a special value for ui.relative-paths to
  preserve the old behavior, so we can use that as default value for
  it. I don't expect that anyone would want to set this value, so
  perhaps we could have relied on it being unset, but I don't really
  like behaviors that can only be achieved by a unset config option.
