Raw repo contents API

Warren Gifford requested to merge sg/raw into master

Created by: slimsag

This PR adds the API for fetching raw file contents. This is needed for language extensions to query repository contents via HTTP.

For a high-level overview of what this is capable of, see the extensive documentation / examples inline: https://github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph/pull/800/files#diff-1e4bf7dc9a47bb71ad96285d815d6d85R19

A secondary goal of this change is to serve raw files for a "raw code view" similar to what GitHub has. However, this PR does not implement such a UI feature -- just the endpoint that would handle it.
