master d4ff1d74209: Use faster option for running vc-hg status (Bug#63470)

[Dmitry Gutov]

branch: master
commit d4ff1d74209e97730c52ddd50c4d643c79087a33
Author: Spencer Baugh <sbaugh@janestreet.com>
Commit: Dmitry Gutov <dmitry@gutov.dev>

    Use faster option for running vc-hg status (Bug#63470)
    
    In modern Mercurial, removing the "re:" "-I" "." options provides a
    10x-20x speedup because it allows the Rust implementation of "hg
    status" to be used.
    
    * lisp/vc/vc-hg.el (vc-hg--program-version): Add.
    (vc-hg-dir-status-files): Use --config commands.status.relative=1 to
    make paths relative when available.
