[mp2] introducing PerlOptions +GlobalServer

[Stas Bekman]

I'm trying to fix the logging functions in the vhost environment. In the 
mp1 all the methods/functions called on anything but $r/$s was relying on 
Apache->request. In mp2 Apache->request will be unavailable outside of the 
httpd protocol. So in order to be able to redirect warnings to the vhost's 
private log file one needs to figure out what $s should be used. Therefore 
I think we need to introduce 'PerlOptions +GlobalServer', a big brother 
for 'PerlOptions +GlobalRequest', which will be set in 
modperl_hook_pre_connection.

When 'PerlOptions +GlobalServer' is set Apache->server can now be the 
vhost/base server. Otherwise it will be the base server.

The base server will be always Apache->server->base_server or may be there 
should be a direct alias Apache->base_server, which will always give us 
the base server.

When implemented places where Apache->request was used only to get the 
global server object, can query Apache->server.

Thoughts?
