[PATCH/RFC 03/11] gitweb.js: Provide default values for padding in padLeftStr and padLeft

[Jakub Narebski <jnareb@gmail.com>]

This means that one can use padLeft(4, 2) and it would be equivalent
to runing padLeft(4, 2, '0'), and it would return '04' i.e. '4' padded
with '0' to width 2, to be used e.g. in formatting date and time.

This should make those functions easier to use.  Current code doesn't
yet make use of this feature.

This patch is not strictly necessary, but it makes those functions
easier to use, I guess.

Removing this patch would require some trivially resolvable changes
to next commits in this series.
