This is series of gitweb patches to provide better mod_perl
support, for now running gitweb under mod_perl's Registry,
but in the future as mod_perl handler.

First patch is mod_perl related only in a way that it provides
path to mod_perl specific support, but has its own advantages
even when running gitweb simply as CGI script, namely the
centralization of stopping output after HTTP header for HEAD
requests. Till this patch only git_feed had this feature (originally
by Andreas Fuchs).

Second patch was created because further patches make gitweb to
have different codepath for mod_perl; so mod_perl version string
was added to "generator" meta header in HTML header.

I'm not so sure about third patch, namely if I understood what
is written in CGI(3pm) about compile method.

Fourth patch prepares the way for mod_perl specific support.
Perhaps "our $r = shift @_;" instead of "my $r = shift @_;"
would be better.

Fifth patch appears to be unnecessary, at least for now, because
mod_perl Registry populates %ENV hash (and does not need to set
envirionmental variables). Still, it prepares the way for future
running gitweb as mod_perl handler, and not under Registry.

Sixth patch is an RFC. It tries to add HTTP headers directly,
allowing Apache to not need to parse headers, which should speed
up gitweb a bit. It also makes use of mod_perl meets_expectation
method to respond to If-Modified-Since: and If-None-Match: requests
for cache validation. Current state is a bit of mess as it is now.
Comments (and patches) appreciated.
