gitweb: update INSTALL to use shorter make target

Browse source 
Gitweb can be generated by the gitweb/gitweb.cgi target or the gitweb

=======================================
First you have to generate gitweb.cgi from gitweb.perl using
"make gitweb/gitweb.cgi", then copy appropriate files (gitweb.cgi,
gitweb.js, gitweb.css, git-logo.png and git-favicon.png) to their
destination. For example if git was (or is) installed with /usr prefix,
you can do
"make gitweb", then copy appropriate files (gitweb.cgi, gitweb.js,
gitweb.css, git-logo.png and git-favicon.png) to their destination.
For example if git was (or is) installed with /usr prefix, you can do
$ make prefix=/usr gitweb/gitweb.cgi ;# as yourself
$ make prefix=/usr gitweb ;# as yourself
