[RFC/PATCH 2/2] gitweb: check given hash before trying to create snapshot

From

This patch is dual purposed.

First, it makes things nicer in cases when you hand craft the snapshot URL but make a typo (e.g. netx instead of next); you will now get an error message instead of a broken tarball.

Second, any given treeish will always be translated to the full length, unambiguous, hash id; this will be useful for things like creating unique names for snapshot caches.

This patch includes test for t9501 to demonstrate the changed functionality.
