Enhancement: set SPDY environment variable for the cgi application

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Not an issue but it might be usefull to know if the client is connected via 
SPDY or not.
Perhaps by setting an "SPDY" environment variable to spdy version it might be 
sufficient.
Thanks for your work.

Ah, interesting.  mod_spdy already provides an API that other Apache modules 
can use to query whether a given client is connected via SPDY or not (and if 
so, what SPDY version), but I guess that API isn't usable by a CGI script.  
Setting an environment variable sounds like a good idea.  Thanks for the 
suggestion; I'll look into that.

As of r258, mod_spdy now sets the SPDY_VERSION environment variable (for 
requests served via SPDY) to the SPDY version number being used (right now, 
that's always 2, but in the future there will be other SPDY versions).  For 
non-SPDY requests, the variable is left empty/absent.
