[PATCH] gitweb: configurable width for the projects list Description column

[PATCH] gitweb: configurable width for the projects list Description column

[Michael Hendricks]

This allows gitweb users to set $projects_list_description_width
in their gitweb.conf to determine how many characters of a project
description are displayed before being truncated with an ellipsis.
