Assuming gitlab remains API compatible with github.  I'm wondering if
gitlab.com, github.com, and gitlab hosted site support can be merged
into a single set of vars.

The main difference between gitlab, gitlab hosted, and github.com would
be the domain and a set of master sites?  Everything else can be shared.

If you look at www/tt-rss we're using almost the same URL from above as
the master site. This is a gitlab hosted repo.

Having some type of control var to tell ports of the provider 
(github GH, gitlab.com GL, gitlab hosted GLH) would control the master
site values.

 ...
 USE_GITHUB=    yes     # Use github.com and set master sites according
 ...
 USE_GITLAB=    yes     # Use gitlab.com and set master sites according
 ...
 USE_GITLAB=    example.com/path/to/base 
 ...                    # Use gitlab hosted use URLish as master site
 
Or a single var

 ...
 USE_GITHUB=    {yes|GH|GL|example.com/path/to/base}
 ...

If set ports would expect the same GH_* vars from the Porters handbook
Table 5.5
