[PATCH] Documentation/config.txt: Add git-gui options

[Gustaf Hendeby <hendeby@isy.liu.se>]

The 'git gui' has a number of options that can be specified using the
options dialog. Sometimes it is convenient to be able to specify these
from the command line, therefor document these options.

This manual update was initiated by the problem with git gui freezing
up at start when only aspell previous to version 0.6 is available.
For the moment a fix is to set gui.spellingdictionary="none", however
this option isn't documented anywhere but in code.  I think it would
be nice to have this option and other used by git gui documented
somewhere, even if for no other reason than to understand what is in
your .gitconfig.

This patch introduces some more of the git gui specific options in
config.txt with the reset of the git options (as suggested by Shawn.).
An option would be to put the documentation in git-gui.txt and link to
there from config.txt.  This way the config documentation does get
less cluttered, and it makes it possible to have different
documentation for different versions of git gui.  Does anyone have any
opinions?  Maybe it is only me that think the options needs to be
documented at?
