Subject: Redirect to GitHub with a meta refresh

A browser extension redirects github.com to cgithub with declarative net
requests. Its rules match our HTTP redirects back to github.com too, so
those bounce straight back here and loop forever. A meta refresh makes
cgithub the initiator origin instead, which the extension's rules can
exclude, and its delay leaves a page the user can stop on.
