Installing mercurial via pip on Windows fails due to a missing dependency. But the chocolatey package works, so let's use that.
Actually, let's use OS-specific package managers on all platforms to install mercurial (like we already do for fossil).
The spec suite still fails due to #639 (comment), but that's a different issue (#639). This patch makes it even work at all.
Resolves #640
