[PATCH/RFC] gitweb: Separate features with no project specific override

[Jakub Narebski <jnareb@gmail.com>]

Put features for which project specific override is not supported into
separate %global_feature hash, updating gitweb_check_feature()
subroutine to use it.

While at it remove stale comment for 'pathinfo' feature; requiring to
use workaround specified was fixed in b65910f (gitweb: remove
PATH_INFO from $my_url and $my_uri).

This patch has the advantage of clear separation of non-overridable
and overridable features; currently the only difference is lack of
subroutine and comment on feature.  For non-overridable features the
complexisty of {'sub'=>..., 'override'=>..., 'default'=>...} is not
needed.

It has the disadvantage of invalidating old gitweb configuration, and
that now there are two sources of gitweb config.

FIX IT: some spurious "HASH.." is printed to STDERR (by my 'run gitweb
from command line' script), which I didn't found yet.
