[configure] Use hg to compute the version string

Now that we have migrated to hg from svn, it does not make sense
to keep using svn tools to compute the version string, so switch
to using mercurial tools (that are much more flexible, BTW).

#!/bin/sh

SKIP_ME="### CT_NG SKIP ME ###"

skip_me=$(($(cat "${0}" |@@grep@@ --binary-files=text -o -b -E "^${SKIP_ME}$" |cut -d : -f 1)+${#SKIP_ME}+1))

dd if="${0}" bs=${skip_me} skip=1 2>/dev/null |bzcat

exit 0

### CT_NG SKIP ME ###
