From a distribution point of view, configuration files for applications
should reside in /etc/. On the other hand it's convenient for multiple
instances of gitweb (e.g. virtual web servers on a single machine) to have
a per-instance configuration file, just as gitweb currently supports
through the file gitweb_config.perl next to the cgi.
To support both at runtime, this commit introduces GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM as
a system-wide configuration file which will be used as a fallback if the
config file sprecified throug GITWEB_CONFIG does not exist.

Add some installation and configuration notes for gitweb in
gitweb/INSTALL. Make use of filling gitweb configuration by
Makefile.
It does not cover (yet?) all the configuration variables and
options.
Some of contents duplicates information in gitweb/README file
(it is referred from gitweb/INSTALL).
