This new option allows the user to write to or read from
.git/common/config in worktree v1. In worktree v0, --repo is an alias
of --local.

Looks like by default a value is always set in a local
config, which might be dangerous for remote.* or gc.*
parameters, for example. I think that even if reading is
done uniformly setting could depend on the actual variable
being set if no location specified.

I grepped "git config" in scripts to see if we need to change any to
use --repo, but I forgot about builtin commands. git-remote needs to
store remote.* in the shared config file instead.

gc.* and others are set manually by the user, so they decide. We can
have a user-controlled filter that catches certain variables and
suggests they are stored in shared config instead, but this is
optional.
