autoconf: Use autoconf to write installation directories to config.mak.autogen
This makes the Git perl scripts check $GITPERLLIB instead of
$RUNNING_GIT_TESTS, which makes more sense if you are setting up your shell
environment to use a non-installed Git instance.
It also weeds out the @INC munging from the individual scripts and makes
Makefile add it during the .perl files processing, so that we can change
just a single place when we modify this shared logic. It looks ugly in the
scripts, too. ;-)
And instead of doing arcane things with the @INC array, we just do 'use lib'
instead, which is essentialy the same thing anyway.
I first want to do three separate patches but it turned out that it's quite
a lot neater when bundled together, so I hope it's ok.

This is beginning of patch series introducing installation configuration
using autoconf (and no other autotools) to git. The idea is to generate
config.mak.autogen using ./configure (generated from configure.ac by running
autoconf) from config.mak.in, so one can use autoconf as an _alternative_ to
ordinary Makefile, and creating one's own config.mak. Local settings in
config.mak override generated settings in config.mak.autogen
This patch includes minimal configure.ac and config.mak.in, so one can set
installation directories using autoconf generated ./configure script
e.g. ./configure --prefix=/usr

The program is not used by git-clone since git-fetch-pack was extended
to allow its caller do what git-clone-pack alone did, and git-clone was
updated to use it.

Well, assuming breaking --merge-order is fine, here's a patch (on top of
the other ones) that makes
git log <filename>
actually work, as far as I can tell.
I didn't add the logic for --before/--after flags, but that should be
pretty trivial, and is independent of this anyway.

I think most people will want to install the man pages as well.
[jc: incorporated Pasky's comment on not building them as root.
Some people may not want to install asciidoc/xmlto toolchain, so
redirect them to the man and html branches of the git.git
repository as well.]

The existing config.mak should satisfy almost everyone... You
can change the prefix and other vars catch the new setting
anyways. I had forgotten that ?= acts as = (lazy value binding)
and as not := (immediate value binding).

There are several undocumented dependencies in the .spec and in the
INSTALL files. The following is from Fedora, perhaps other RPM
distributions call the packages differently.
Also, the manpages aren't always installed gzipped.
Updates to git-core.spec.in file:
- Some git scripts use Perl
- gitk needs wish, which is part of TCL/Tk.
- curl is used all over
- Need the ssh program from openssh-clients
Updates to INSTALL:
- Mention wish
- Mention ssh

As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:
(1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not
have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
something is implemented as a shell script or not.
(2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
'index' if that is what they mean.
There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near
future.

Jens was the second person who hadn't heard of the "merge" program, and
didn't have it installed. So document as many dependency and install
issues as I can think of.
