svnmucc (since we don't have "svn-admin", etc)

By the way, I have no objection to releasing this tool standalone now.
I've said in the past that it should really be subsumed into a new
'svn shell' functionality, and still believe that, but we mustn't let
the perfect be the enemy of the cliché, or however that saying goes.

mucc is here now, let's support it until we have a real shell, and
then gradually obsolete it (I'm sure we can find a reasonable way to
do that, like by not adding any new features) once we have a shell.
