Well, this "\r" allows to recognize when file with Windows line ending
(CRLF) made it into repository... which usually is discouraged. But
if you allow this, I can understand that those "\r" at the end of
every line can be annoying.
A simple _workaround_ would be to create one's own extra stylesheet,
with rule hiding control characters visualization (including "\r"), e.g.
.cntrl { display: none; }
and stuff thys additional it in @stylesheets via gitweb config file.

Please read Documentation/SubmittingPatches if you want your work to
be considered for inclusion. This is not a proper patch -- it lacks
commit message (comments should be outside of it, e.g. between "---"
and diffstat) and signoff.

Note that your patch beside hiding "\r" in the case when file has
Windows line endings, it also hides "\r" in the case where file has
_mixed_ line endings (LF mixed with CRLF, which is incorrect). Though
handling that well would be quite difficult, I think...
Though esc_html gets passed whole lines, I am not sure if it always
gets passed whole lines and would continue getting passed only whole
lines in the future, so there should be 'g' modifier (or better 'gm'
modifier to make sure that $ matches end of line not only end of
string).
I think it would be better if there was an option to switch hiding
"\r" on and off... though I am not sure if it can be done without
incuring large performance penalty.

Another solution would be to modify quot_cec...
