gitweb: Remove function prototypes (cleanup)
Use of function prototypes is considered bad practice in Perl. The
ones used here didn't accomplish anything anyhow, so they've been
removed.
>From perlsub(1):
[...] the intent of this feature [prototypes] is primarily to let
you define subroutines that work like built-in functions [...]
you can generate new syntax with it [...]
We don't want to have subroutines behaving exactly like built-in
functions, we don't want to define new syntax / syntactic sugar, so
prototypes in gitweb are not needed... and they can have unintended
consequences.
