[cgiapp] Turning off Template output for AJAX

[kropotkin]

Hi fRew

I went for a simple solution. Our template is added in the postrun filter. I
set a property of the object to be 'ajax' rather than 'browser' in the class
and in post_run I just bail out if this property is 'ajax', not outputting a
template

Thanks
