git-help: add -w|--web option to display html man page in a browser.
Now when using "git help -w cmd", we will try to show the HTML man page "git-cmd.html" in your prefered web browser. To do that "help.c" code will call a new shell script "git-browse-help". This currently works only if the HTML versions of the man page have been installed in $(htmldir) (typically "/usr/share/doc/git-doc"), so new target to do that is added to "Documentation/Makefile". The browser to use can be configured using the "web.browser" config variable. We try to open a new tab in an existing web browser, if possible. The code in "git-browse-help" is heavily stolen from "git-mergetool" by Theodore Y. Ts'o. Thanks.
