hg: set encoding to utf-8 by default to always show unicode characters correctly

Unicode characters would be shown as '?' if Kallithea was launched in a LANG=C
environment (or similar).

The problem could be solved by setting HGENCODING before launching Kallithea or
before importing Mercurial. These are often not good solutions.

Instead, introduce a hgencoding config setting that triggers monkey patching of
Mercurial.
.. _backup:

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================


Settings
--------

Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.


Whoosh index
------------

The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located


Database
--------

When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.

A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
