Problem: on Windows, we cannot name the helper git-remote-http+svn: "+" is
not an allowed character in a filename.

Then do a s/+/-/ before calling the helper; no-one said the
translation between protocol name and helper name had to be 1:1, as
long as we document it there is no reason not to? Then again, maybe
it's more better to use 'svn-http" or 'svn:http' to make it obvious
that it's a special feature thingy.

Yes, I agree: svn:http:// is much better.
