policy: relax the default for in-place build We're going to make the 'c' policy more strict, where no missing attribute will be allowed. Since we want to run 'hg bisect' without rebuilding the C extension modules, we'll need a looser policy for development environment. The default for system installation isn't changed. Note that the current 'c' policy is practically 'allow'-ish as we have lots of adhoc fallbacks to pure functions.

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
