[PATCH] remote-hg: store converted URL

From

From: Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com>

Mercurial might convert the URL to something more appropriate, like an absolute path. Lets store that instead of the original URL, which won't work from a different working directory if it's relative.

While I am not quite happy with using "git config" to solve it, there
doesn't seem to be a better way right now.
