Ian KellingThe highlight binary can detect language by shebang when we can't tell the syntax type by the name of the file. To use highlight's shebang detection, add highlight to the pipeline whenever highlight is enabled.
Document the shebang detection and add a test which exercises it in t/t9500-gitweb-standalone-no-errors.sh.

Notes:
I wondered if adding highlight to the pipeline would make viewing a blob
with no highlighting take longer but it did not on my computer. I found
no noticeable impact on small files and strangely, on a 159k file, it
took 7% less time averaged over several requests.Documentation/gitweb.conf.txt | 21 ++++++++++++++------- gitweb/gitweb.perl | 10 +++++----- t/t9500-gitweb-standalone-no-errors.sh | 18 +++++++++++++----- 3 files changed, 32 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-)
