Subject: [PATCH 2/2] gitweb: support to globally enable/disable a  
snapshot format

I added an 'enabled' variable to to the $known_snapshot_format keys so that a Gitweb administrator can globally enable or disable a specific format for snapshots.

All formats are enabled by default because project specific overriding is disabled by default.
