Details

It seems "mach clobber python" relies on "hg purge", which depends on the builtin purge extension.

Given that some command relies on that, mercurial-setup should add it as part of the wizard.
`mach clobber python` should be specifying `--config extensions.purge=` to enable the purge extension as part of the command invocation.

Since `hg purge` can result in data loss and is therefore a footgun, I'd rather not enable it wholesale in the setup wizard.
