Hi!

I've patched the get_maintainer.pl script to also try finding
maintainers from Mercurial history -- as alternative to git.

Given that there are official hg repositories available from kernel.org,
Mercurial seems to be an acceptable alternative to git. Does this patch
have any chance?

(I really did try git, but hg just works better for me. I don't want to
start a flame war here)

scripts/get_maintainer.pl: also find maintainers from Mercurial (hg log)

When a .git directory doesn't exist, get_maintainer now tries to use Mercurial
instead.

Changed behavior:
* Warns when .git is found but git is not installed
* Warns when .hg is found but Mercurial is not installed
* Previously --nogit made it quiet when outside a repository. Now --nogit yells
about non-existant .hg repository

New behavior can be disabled with --nohg
