[hgbook ver. 2015] Updated version of the Mercurial book

As already said, I worked on a new version of the Mercurial book. It is now in a better shape!

For now, the repository is hosted on Github https://github.com/paugier/mercurial-jupyterbook. Of course it would make more sense to have this project hosted on foss.heptapod.

The build system is completely different (no more separated .rst + .t files nor complicated Makefiles). The sources are IMHO much cleaner and the result is a bit prettier.

The result can be read on readthedocs https://mercurial-book.readthedocs.io

I didn't try to use asciidag (an unmaintained Sphinx extension based on TikZ/LaTeX) so there are few graphs that are not rendered.

The content is for some chapters quite outdated (for example about rollback, mq, etc.). I guess it could be nice to have a new version with updated content but it would require a collective effort.
