gitweb: Document features better

This expands gitweb/README to talk some more about GITWEB_CONFIG, moves
feature-specific documentation in gitweb.cgi to the inside of the %features
array, and adds some short description of all the features.

This file will be loaded using 'require' and can be used to override any
of the options above as well as some other options - see the top of

$GITWEB_CONFIG is set when gitweb.cgi is executed the file in the

specified when gitweb.cgi was created.
Runtime gitweb configuration
----------------------------
You can adjust gitweb behaviour using the file specified in `GITWEB_CONFIG`
(defaults to 'gitweb_config.perl' in the same directory as the CGI).
See the top of 'gitweb.cgi' for the list of variables and some description.
The most notable thing that is not configurable at compile time are the
optional features, stored in the '%features' variable. You can find further
description on how to reconfigure the default features setting in your
`GITWEB_CONFIG` or per-project in `project.git/config` inside 'gitweb.cgi'.
