[PATCH v3] gitweb: redacted e-mail addresses feature.

["Georgios Kontaxis via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Georgios Kontaxis <geko1702+commits@99rst.org>

Gitweb extracts content from the Git log and makes it accessible
over HTTP. As a result, e-mail addresses found in commits are
exposed to web crawlers and they may not respect robots.txt.
This may result in unsolicited messages.
This is a feature for redacting e-mail addresses
from the generated HTML, etc. content.

This feature does not prevent someone from downloading the
unredacted commit log, e.g., by cloning the repository, and
extracting information from it.
It aims to hinder the low-effort bulk collection of e-mail
addresses by web crawlers.

Changes since v1:
- Turned off the feature by default.
- Removed duplicate code.
- Added note about Gitweb consumers receiving redacted logs.

Changes since v2:
- The feature can be set on a per-project basis. ('override' => 1)

+It is highly recommended to enable this feature unless web crawlers are
+hindered in some other way. Note that crawlers intent on harvesting e-mail
+addresses may disregard robots.txt. You can enable this feature like so:

+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+$feature{'email_privacy'}{'default'} = [1];

+Note that if Gitweb is not the final step in a workflow then subsequent
+steps may misbehave because of the redacted information they receive.
