separate tar.* config to its own source file
Even though there is only one configuration variable in the namespace, it is not quite right to have tar.umask described among the variables for tag.* namespace. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

+tar.umask::
+ This variable can be used to restrict the permission bits of
+ tar archive entries. The default is 0002, which turns off the
+ world write bit. The special value "user" indicates that the
+ archiving user's umask will be used instead. See umask(2) and
+ linkgit:git-archive[1].
