[PATCH 6/8] config: stop using config_exclusive_filename

[Jeff King <peff@peff.net>]

The git-config command sometimes operates on the default set
of config files (either reading from all, or writing to repo
config), and sometimes operates on a specific file. In the
latter case, we set the magic global config_exclusive_filename,
and the code in config.c does the right thing.

Instead, let's have git-config use the "advanced" variants
of config.c's functions which let it specify an individual
filename (or NULL for the default). This makes the code a
lot more obvious, and fixes two small bugs:

  1. A relative path specified by GIT_CONFIG=foo will look
     in the wrong directory if we have to chdir as part of
     repository setup. We already handle this properly for
     "git config -f foo", but the GIT_CONFIG lookup used
     config_exclusive_filename directly. By dropping to a
     single magic variable, the GIT_CONFIG case now just
     works.

  2. Calling "git config -f foo --edit" would not respect
     core.editor. This is because just before editing, we
     called git_config, which would respect the
     config_exclusive_filename setting, even though this
     particular git_config call was not about looking in the
     user's specified file, but rather about loading actual
     git config, just as any other git program would.

The diffstat is slightly disappointing. It really is a one-for-one
conversion in almost every case, but the functions and variable names
are so bloody long that I had to wrap the calls to stay under 80
characters.
