Line-ending conversion rules for hg-git users and enabled use of .git…

…ignore by hg-git users

Mercurial does not have built-in support for converting line-endings. This is a
settings file for hg eol (http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/EolExtension), an
extension that replicates the behaviour of git with core.autocrlf=true.

Mercurial uses Python regex syntax by default in its .hgignore files. Adding
this line to .gitignore overrides that setting, so hg-git users can just create
a hardlink to it (e.g "mklink /H .hgignore .gitignore" on Windows) to use it.
