Proposed port patch provided by gjb

As part of the set up and ongoing running of hg-beta.freebsd.org, I make use of
a patch against devel/mercurial which allows me to append a suffix to author
names during the svn -> hg incremental conversion process.

clusteradm@ are working to streamline the package management on cluster hosts
and it would simplify things for them if the hg-beta.freebsd.org jail did not
make use of any custom compiled software.

The patch in question is at [1]. and after discussion with upstream [2,3] it
was decided not to fold it into the official Mercurial distribution.

I'm hoping to carry the patch in our mercurial/devel port as an off-by-default
option which clusteradm@ can then enable for cluster package builds via
poudriere.
