Git-aware CGI to provide dumb HTTP transport

The git-http-backend CGI can be configured into any Apache server
using ScriptAlias, such as with the following configuration:

LoadModule cgi_module /usr/libexec/apache2/mod_cgi.so
LoadModule alias_module /usr/libexec/apache2/mod_alias.so
ScriptAlias /git/ /usr/libexec/git-core/git-http-backend/

Repositories are accessed via the translated PATH_INFO.

The CGI is backwards compatible with the dumb client, allowing all
older HTTP clients to continue to download repositories which are
managed by the CGI.
