Add the shared config writers and cgit_rc

The helpers are named by kind. cgitrc_repo and cgitrc_copy write the
config file named first, and cgit_url, cgit_query and cgit_rc run cgit,
each named after what it is handed first. A repository copies its
defaults from the globals read before its repo.url, so cgitrc_repo
places every setting itself, and a global can no longer land where it
silently stops applying. The t00xx and t01xx files move to them here.
