doc: advertise GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM
On a multiuser system where mortals do not have write access to /etc,
the GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM variable is the best tool we have to keep
getting work done when a syntax error or other problem renders
/etc/gitconfig buggy, until the sysadmin sorts the problem out.
Noticed while experimenting with teaching git to error out when
/etc/gitconfig is unreadable.
