From: Torsten Bögershausen <redacted>
Commit 942e77 "Add "core.eol" config variable" adds a condition to
the config parser: core.autocrlf=input is not allowed together with
core.eol=crlf.
This may lead to unnecessary problems, when config files are parsed:
A global config file sets core.autocrlf=input,
the repo local config file sets is own configuration: core.eol=crlf
There is no need to prevent combinations in config.c, in any case
core.autocrlf overrides core.eol.
Allow all combinations of core.crlf and core.eol and document
that core.autocrlf overrides core.eol.
