[PATCH v3 16/19] pull: configure --rebase via branch.<name>.rebase or pull.rebase

[Paul Tan <pyokagan@gmail.com>]

Since cd67e4d (Teach 'git pull' about --rebase, 2007-11-28),
fetch+rebase could be set by default by defining the config variable
branch.<name>.rebase. This setting can be overriden on the command line
by --rebase and --no-rebase.

Since 6b37dff (pull: introduce a pull.rebase option to enable --rebase,
2011-11-06), git-pull --rebase can also be configured via the
pull.rebase configuration option.

Re-implement support for these two configuration settings by introducing
config_get_rebase() which is called before parse_options() to set the
default value of opt_rebase.

Notes:
    v3
    
    * Now that parse_config_rebase() takes care of the die()-ing and
      error()-ing, we only need one function again. Yay!
    
    * The free()s is ugly though. Ideally, I would like to have a xstrfmt()
      function that returns a static buffer.
    
    * We now don't lookup the pull.rebase config if the --rebase option is
      provided on the command-line.
