gitweb/lib - Adaptive cache expiration time

Add to GitwebCache::SimpleFileCache support for adaptive lifetime
(cache expiration) control.  Cache lifetime can be increased or
decreased by any factor, e.g. load average, through the definition
of the 'check_load' callback.

Note that using ->set_expires_in, or unsetting 'check_load' via
->set_check_load(undef) turns off adaptive caching.

Make gitweb automatically adjust cache lifetime by load, using
get_loadavg() function.  Define and describe default parameters for
dynamic (adaptive) cache expiration time control.

There are some very basic tests of dynamic expiration time in t9503,
namely checking if dynamic expire time is within given upper and lower
bounds.
