[issue25103] 3.5.0 installed standard library on Windows has LF line endings

[Zachary Ware]

New submission from Zachary Ware:

It would be nice to install the standard library (and test suite) with CRLF line endings, to allow for reading/editing with Notepad.  Horrible though it is, it's at least always available :)

Steve, this may just be an issue of how your repository is checked out; I assume if your working directory has LF line endings, that will propagate to the installer/installed files?  The hg 'eol' extension takes care of making everything CRLF on Windows, but only if it's enabled before the working directory is created (you can force an EOL update by doing `hg up null && hg up 3.5` with 'eol' enabled).
