[PATCH v4 3/8] test-http-server: add stub HTTP server test helper

From

<07a1845ea5693fc8d3716e7f97e65d467f34a40e.1670880984.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.1352.v4.git.1670880984.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Matthew John Cheetham <mjcheetham@outlook.com>

Introduce a mini HTTP server helper that in the future will be enhanced to provide a frontend for the git-http-backend, with support for arbitrary authentication schemes.

Right now, test-http-server is a pared-down copy of the git-daemon that always returns a 501 Not Implemented response to all callers.
