[cgiwrap-users] Committed changed to cgiwrap - path trans, and added multiuser cgi script dir support

[Nathan N. <nn...@um...>]

I just committed changes to add that patch for the path_translated fix.
I've also added support for a shared/common cgi directory.

By it's very nature, this shared cgi directory is dangerous and really
should not be used unless you're very sure about it, but alot of people
have asked for it.

The option is:

	--with-multiuser-cgi-dir=PATH

When processing the scriptname that is passed to cgiwrap, it will use
the script that is more precisely defined. I.e. if the call specifies
a/b/c, and the user has a script "a/b", and the common dir has "a", it
will use "a/b" and set path_info to "c". If the user has "a/b" and the
common dir has "a/b/c" it will use "a/b/c" and set a blank path_info.
This is confusing, but it was the best I could come up with for dealing
with the inexact representation of scripts in the URI. 

Try it out, let me know if it does what y'all needed it to do.

For reference, the common function I imagine this being used for is the
"create/edit your home page" type of app or a standardized form handler
app, where you don't want to install it for all users, but you want
things like mail to come from the right account, and you don't want to
have excess/extra setuid apps.
