[PATCH] gitk: Make web links clickable

[Paul Mackerras <paulus@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This makes gitk look for lines in the commit message which start with
"Link:" or "BugLink:" followed by a http or https URL, and make the
URL clickable.  Clicking on it will invoke an external web browser with
the URL.

The web browser command is by default "xdg-open" on Linux, "open" on
MacOS, and "cmd /c start" on Windows.  The command can be changed in
the preferences window, and it can include parameters as well as the
command name.  If it is set to the empty string then URLs will no
longer be made clickable.
