[PULL REQUEST] Make default pages configurable

[jean-christophe manciot]

It is useful indeed, I use it for my public site <https://git.sdxlive.com/>
since it was proposed.
But it appears that making it to the cgit git sources as a commit is a
different story.
Maybe the admin(s) could share the policies which make a patch eligible to
the commit status on the master branch, such as:
- being useful to the community
- having passed some thorough functional tests
- having passed some thorough security tests
- ...
What about adding an official development branch?.
