git-cvsserver: handle CVS 'noop' command.
The CVS protocol documentation, found at
http://www.wandisco.com/techpubs/cvs-protocol.pdf
states the following about the 'noop' command:
Response expected: yes. This request is a null command
in the sense that it doesn't do anything, but merely
(as with any other requests expecting a response) sends
back any responses pertaining to pending errors, pending
Notified responses, etc.
In accordance with this, the correct way to handle the 'noop'
command, when issued by a client, is to call req_EMPTY.
The 'noop' command is called by some CVS clients, notably
TortoiseCVS, thus making it desirable for git-cvsserver to
respond to the command rather than choking on it as unknown.
