Subject: [PATCH] Provides vc-hg-ignore to make vc-ignore work correctly

* lisp/vc/vc-hg.el: (vc-hg-ignore) Ignore file of directory.  Add
filepath relative to directory of Mercurial .hgignore file.  The
filepath is quoted according to the active ignore syntax (Bug#37189).
(vc-hg--py-regexp-quote) Quote string as regexp to match exactly
string.
