Jeff King f7e8714101 t: prefer "git config --file" to GIT_CONFIG ...

Doing:

  GIT_CONFIG=foo git config ...

is equivalent to:

  git config --file=foo ...

The latter is easier to read and slightly less error-prone,
because of issues with one-shot variables and shell
functions (e.g., you cannot use the former with
test_must_fail).

Note that we explicitly leave one case in t1300 which checks
the same operation on both GIT_CONFIG and "git config
--file". They are equivalent in the code these days, but
this will make sure it remains so.
