add support for git-daemon native protocol?

Hey there, awesome work on this library.

While using this library for my project I realized that what I actually needed was a Go version of the git daemon command. I spent some time making it work with the ssh and smart http servers, but I just had to fallback to the git protocol. Looking in the internet, I found this library (https://github.com/aymanbagabas/go-git-daemon) which helps in what I need.

It'd be awesome to add git-daemon support to gitkit

I dont think i've used git daemon, so how do you envision gitkit support this mode of operation? Also, why not use the git daemon on its own ?

Also, why not use the git daemon on its own ?

mostly because gitkit seems more maintained and there's traction here. git-daemon is maintained by a single contributor. Maybe @aymanbagabas would like to contribute here?

Cool, i dont think i have any capacity to work on any new features so any external contribution would be helpful.
