[PATCH 04/18] gitweb: Minimal testing of gitweb caching

From: Jakub Narebski <jnareb@gmail.com>

Add basic tests of caching support to t9500-gitweb-standalone-no-errors test: set $caching_enabled to true and check for errors for first time run (generating cache) and second time run (retrieving from cache) for a single view - summary view for a project. Check also that request for non-existent object (which results in die_error() codepath to be called) doesn't produce errors.

Check in t9501-gitweb-standalone-http-status that request for non-existent object produces correct output (HTTP headers and HTML output) also when caching is enabled.

Check in the t9502-gitweb-standalone-parse-output test that gitweb produces the same output with and without caching, for first and second run, with binary (raw) or plain text (utf8) output.

The common routine that enables cache, gitweb_enable_caching, is defined in t/gitweb-lib.sh
