Change the default message for errors (for fatalsToBrowser) to use
die_error() subroutine. This way errors (and explicitely calling 'die
MESSAGE') would generate 'Internal Server Error' error message.
Note that call to set_message is intentionally not put in BEGIN block;
we set error handler to use die_error() only after we are sure that we
can use it, after all needed variables are set.
Due to the fact that error handler set via set_message() subroutine
from CGI::Carp (in the fatalsToBrowser case) is called after HTTP
headers were already printed (with exception of MOD_PERL), gitweb
cannot return 'Status: 500 Internal Server Error'.
Thanks to the fact that die_error() no longer uses 'exit', errors
would be logged by CGI::Carp, independent on whether default error
handler is used, or handle_errors_html which uses die_error is used.

Because of the fact that with CGI::Carp::set_message and die_error
you cannot return proper HTTP status code, I have decided that
caching engine needs support for custom error handler anyway, a la
'on_get_error' and 'on_set_error' in CHI.
With this patch most error messages, from fatal errors in gitweb or
Perl, should get look of the rest of gitweb. This is good idea even
without caching support.
