[PATCH resend] status: store format option as an int

[Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>]

It is unsafe to pass a pointer to a value of enumerated type to
OPT_SET_INT (as v1.7.0-rc0~137^2~14, 2009-09-05, does), since it might
have the wrong alignment or width.  C99 only says "Each enumerated
type shall be compatible with char, a signed integer type, or an
unsigned integer type.  The choice of type is implementation-defined,
but shall be capable of representing the values of all the members of
the enumeration."

Probably this hasn't come up in practice because GCC uses an 'int' to
represent small enums unless passed -fshort-enums, except on certain
architectures where -fshort-enums is the default.

I last sent this about a month ago and it seemed ok.  The changes
since last time are to the commit message:

 - hopefully it parses as English now
 - adding Jeff's ack

Thanks again, both.
