This is an initial attempt at implementing a mechanism for rendering
text documents as HTML in the tree view (Markdown, ReStructuredText,
etc.). Filters are specified by file extension in the same way as MIME
type mappings, but I have not added support for overriding these in
per-repository configuration. This makes it like MIME type mapping but
unlike the source filter, which can be specific per-repository.
A new "source" view is introduced to get back to the source, as it is
currently displayed, when a renderer is available and is being used by
default.
The tree view changes so that if a render filter is specified in the
configuration, the rendered content is used. As an additional
enhancement, if a MIME type is specified, the content is included inline
served via the "plain" page. This allows displaying images inline
without needing to fork a filter process just to write an HTML wrapper.
The stylesheet probably needs some work, any suggestions or follow up
patches will be gratefully received.

Use string list strdup_strings for mimetypes
Add "source" page
Parse render filters from the config
ui-tree: split out buffer printing
ui-tree: use render filters to display content
