From

<1275573356-21466-1-git-send-email-pavan.sss1991@gmail.com>

Create Gitweb::Config module in 'gitweb/lib/Gitweb/Config.pm' to store all the configuration variables of the gitweb.perl script.

Subroutines moved:
	evaluate_gitweb_config
	evaluate_git_version
Subroutines yet to move: (Contains calls to not yet packaged subs)
	gitweb_get_feature
	gitweb_check_feature
Update gitweb/Makefile to install gitweb modules alongside gitweb
