Placing the contrib hooks into /usr/share/doc/ wasn't a good idea in the

/usr/share/git-core/, so let's put them there.

Thanks to Bill Allombert for reporting this through

What is the rationale for applying this outside of the land of Debian? I
understand the EPEL/Fedora crew are putting those example hooks
into /usr/share/git-gore, but I want to know why that should become the
standard in git.git.
