[PATCH v2] gitweb: Replace <base> tag with full URLs (when using PATH_INFO)

[Tobias Girstmair <tobi@isticktoit.net>]

using a base tag has the side-effect of not just changing the few URLs
of gitweb's static resources, but all other relative links (e.g. those
in a README.html), too.

Signed-off-by: Tobias Girstmair <tobi@isticktoit.net>

In v1 of this patch I didn't think about already absolute URLs. Fixed.
