Make the router use port 3000 by default

This saves us having to reconfigure gitlab/config/gitlab.yml to use a different port: value.

This setup mirrors how GitLab.com will be setup soon.

How to set up and validate locally

  1. Set up a local interface
  2. Run gdk config set gitlab_http_router.enabled true
  3. Run gdk reconfigure
  4. Run gdk restart. A new service gitlab-http-router should now start.
  5. In a new terminal tab, run gdk tail gitlab-http-router
  6. Go to http://gdk.test:3000 (router). You should see traffic running via the router.
  7. Go to http://gdk.test:3333 (workhorse). You should see no traffic running via the router.
