We want to eliminate the source transformer. Currently it inserts
a `from mercurial.pycompat import ...` at the top of files to alias
some builtins.

This commit replaces the implicit import of `open` with an explicit
import on files that need it and changes the source transformer to
no longer import `open`.

As part of this, we needed to store an explicit local for `open` in
the Python 2 code path in `pycompat` so the import works. (Builtins
that are automatically in scope cannot be imported.)

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install::

$ make # see install targets
$ make install # do a system-wide install
$ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
$ hg # see help

Running without installing::

$ make local # build for inplace usage
$ ./hg --version # should show the latest version

See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
