I did a large refactor of hgmerge.py today.  I got rid of the collection
of wrapper scripts and pulled everything into hgmerge.py proper,
implementing the detect and run wrappers as class methods.   The impetus
behind this was from trying to integrate the scripts into the py2exe
based Windows installer.  Having a dozen separate executable scripts was
too unwieldy.

While I was at it I wrote some utility functions for fixing up EOL
problems which seem to be common with many merge tools (writing merge
output in the native text format, rather than in the eol style of the
input files).  Many of the wrappers now use these functions to clean up
after themselves.

The result can be found here:  http://hg.borho.org/hgmerge
