Done.

Not done, but with 1. it should be not very necessary... unless another
bug is found in related code, that is.

Done (comments in code).

Done 4.A.

The patch below (addressing those issues) is based on

  "[PATCHv2/RFC] gitweb: Restructure projects list generation"
  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/167996/focus=168321
  http://repo.or.cz/w/git/jnareb-git.git/commit/420071752d13dcecd59e794d82285e7e142ef75f

Subject: [RFC/PATCH] gitweb: Change the way "content tags" ('ctags') are handled

The major change is removing the ability to edit content tags (ctags)
in a web browser.

The interface was created by gitweb, while actual editing of tags was
to be done by external script; the API was not defined, and neither
was provided example implementation.  Such split is also a bit fragile
- interface and implementation have to be kept in sync.  Gitweb
provided only ability to add tags; you could not edit tags nor delete
them.


Format of ctags is now described in the comment above git_get_project_ctags
subroutine.  Gitweb now is more robust with respect to original ctags
format; it also accepts two new formats: $GIT_DIR/ctags file, with one
content tag per line, and multi-value `gitweb.ctag' config variable.

Gathering all ctags of all project is now put in git_gather_all_ctags
subroutine, making git_project_list_body more clear.

git_populate_project_tagcloud subroutine now generates data used for
tag cloud, including generation of ctag link, also in the case
HTML::TagCloud module is unavailable.  Links are now generated using
href() subroutine - this is more robust, as ctags might contain '?',
';' and '=' special characters that need to be escaped in query param.
Shown tags are HTML-escaped.

The generation of tag cloud in git_show_project_tagcloud in the case
when HTML::TagCloud is not available is now changed slightly.

The 'content tags' field on project summary page is made more in line
with other fields in "projects_list" table.  Because one cannot now
add new tags from web interface, this field is no longer displayed
when there are no content tags for given project.
