mediawiki pages can have names longer than NAME_MAX (generally 255)
characters, which will fail on checkout. we simply strip out extra
characters, which may mean one page's content will overwrite another
(the last editing winning).
ideally, we would do a more clever system to find unique names, but
that would be more difficult and error prone for a situation that
should rarely happen in the first place.

In the current state, a user of git-remote-mediawiki can edit the markup text
locally, but has to push to the remote wiki to see how the page is rendererd.
Add a new 'git mw preview' command that allows rendering the markup text on
the remote wiki without actually pushing any change on the wiki.
This uses Mediawiki's API to render the markup and inserts it in an actual
HTML page from the wiki so that CSS can be rendered properly. Most links
should work when the page exists on the remote.

For now, Git::Mediawiki contains nothing.
This first patch moves some of git-remote-mediawiki.perl's factorisable code
into Git::Mediawiki. In the same time, it removes the side effects of that code
and renames the fucntions and constants moved to expose a better API.

We would want to allow the user to preview what he has edited locally
before pushing it out (and thus creating a non-removable revision in
the mediawiki's history).
This patch introduces a new perl package in which we will be able to
share code between that new tool and the remote helper:
git-remote-mediawiki.perl.
A perl package offers the best way to handle such case: Each script
can select what should be imported in its namespace. The package
namespacing limits the use of side effects in the shared code.
An alternate solution is to concatenate a "toolset" file with each
*.perl when 'make'-ing the project. In that scheme, everything is
imported in the script's namespace. Plus, files should be renamed in
order to chain to Git's toplevel makefile. Hence, this solution is not
acceptable.
