[PATCH v4 0/1] environment: move excludes_file into repo_config_values

[Tian Yuchen <cat@malon.dev>]

This patch continues the libification effort by migrating the global
string variable 'excludes_file' into 'struct repo_config_values'. Since
this is a dynamically allocated variable, the migration requires proper
heap memory management.

This patch mainly does three things:

 - Abstract the XDG fallback lazy-loading logic out of dir.c into a proper
 getter.

 - Move the variables into the struct repo_config_values.

 - Introduce the memory destructor 'repo_config_values_clear()'.


Changes since V2:

 - Squash together the previous two commits into one.

 - The 'repo->initialized' check is used in both the getter and destructor.
 This eliminates redundant checks and follows the fail-fast principle. This
 is consistent with the previous global variable removal patches [1][2][3].

Note: Resending as v3 purely to fix a malformed In-Reply-To header in v2
that broke the email thread. No actual code changes since v2...

Thanks!
