Code Issues Proposed changes

Do not use system gitweb.cgi when gitweb URL set, cgi unset

Browse Source 
Until 1b2d47e7a2 (Extract CGI
configuration from GitWebConfig, 2015-06-12), setting

	[gitweb]
		url = url://of/my/gitweb/instance
		; cgi not set

was a way to request use of an externally managed gitweb instance
instead of the internal GitwebServlet.  That patch accidentally
dropped support for that configuration, though it mostly worked if
/usr/lib/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi happened to be missing or non-executable.

Noticed by running gitweb in such a configuration with
/usr/lib/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi present and executable.  GitwebServlet
failed to provision because I do not use LocalDiskRepositoryManager
and gerrit.basepath was not set.

 Unexpected exception caught during GET localhost/
 com.google.inject.ProvisionException: Unable to provision, see the following errors:

 1) Error injecting constructor, java.lang.IllegalStateException: gerrit.basePath must be configured
