Subject: [PATCH 2/3] gitweb: support to globally disable a snapshot  
format

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

All formats are enabled by default, except for the txz format
(explained below), because project specific overriding is disabled by
default.

The txz format is disabled as it is still new and has relatively high
resource requirements (ref. 4f1c1fb73b4cdaf4bcf817fb2af99bd71f1ca61f).
