 Introduce two new ways to feed configuration variable-value pairs
 via environment variables, and tweak the way GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS
 encodes variable/value pairs to make it more robust.

 Ready for 'next'?

I looked over the first 7, and noticed two of the patches are flipped in
roder (I sent a separate reply in the thread, but I wanted to catch your
attention, since I guess this may be on the list for integrating today).

I didn't see any problems in the code of the 8th one, but I didn't spend
a lot of brain power thinking about the overall design. I feel like that
was hashed out pretty well in the early discussions, though.
