You can set the GITWEB_TEST_INSTALLED environment variable to the gitwebdir (the directory where gitweb is installed / deployed to) of an existing gitweb instalation to test that installation.

This change is intended to make it possible to test that process of installing gitweb (and the modules it depends on) works correctly after splitting gitweb.

It is an RFC because I am not sure where to put documentation, i.e. description of GITWEB_TEST_INSTALLED. Should it be put in t/README, in gitweb/README, or in gitweb/INSTALL, or in t/gitweb-lib.sh header?
