tortoisehg intentionally wants to back-date the Mercurial build,
and some of the features we've added to the Mercurial build won't work
correctly under hg 5.6.
This version is not yet released. However given that python2 will soon
go end-of-life (without security updates), this seems like a good move.
The package was also lacking proper qt wrapping and unusable before.
* tortoisehg: untie from mercurial
When I've added `tortoisehg` package, it turned out that mercurial updates
sometimes broke thg. I've added a comment to `mercurial/default.nix` to
update torotisehg version during mercurial updates, but this worked the other way round:
mercurial stopped to be updated regularly (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/60993).
And sadly it didn't solve the issue - https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/61759.
Here I'm trying to untie them. Tortoisehg will build a custom mercurial package
if versions don't match. This makes updating tortoisehg more complicated,
but it is still better than current situation.

fixes#13507
On June 8 (e8655ee) tortoisehg changed the way
it computes the `/usr/share` directory in a way that
invalidated the assumptions behind the use
of substituteInPlace in postUnpack.
