[RFC PATCH v4 18/26] http-backend: use mod_alias instead of mod_rewrite

From: Mark Lodato <lodatom@gmail.com>

In the git-http-backend documentation, use mod_alias exlusively, instead of using a combination of mod_alias and mod_rewrite. This makes the example slightly shorted and a bit more clear.
