git-svn: ignore SIGPIPE

In HTTP with keep-alive it's not uncommon for the client to notice that
the server decided to stop maintaining the current connection only when
sending a new request.  This naturally results in -EPIPE and possibly
SIGPIPE.

The subversion library itself makes no provision for SIGPIPE.  Some
combinations of the underlying libraries do (typically SIG_IGN-ing it),
some don't.

Presumably for that reason all subversion commands set SIGPIPE to
SIG_IGN early in their main()-s.

So should we.

This, together with the previous patch, fixes the notorious "git-svn
died of signal 13" problem (see e.g.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/134936).
