[PATCH v7 4/9] environment: move pager_program into repo_config_values

From: Tian Yuchen <hidden>
Date: 2026-07-06 14:26:09
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

The 'pager_program' variable is currently defined as a file-scoped
static string in pager.c. Move it into 'struct repo_config_values'.

The configuration parsing logic remains strictly within pager.c to
respect subsystem boundaries. The read/write operations are simply
redirected to the repository-specific structure using
'repo_config_values()'.

Similar to the recent editor_program migration, no standalone getter
is introduced to keep the code minimal. The dynamically allocated
memory is now managed by 'repo_config_values_clear()'.
