repo-settings.c: simplify the setup
Simplify the setup code in repo-settings.c in various ways, making the
code shorter, easier to read, and requiring fewer hacks to do the same
thing as it did before:
Since 7211b9e7534 (repo-settings: consolidate some config settings,
2019-08-13) we have memset() the whole "settings" structure to -1 in
prepare_repo_settings(), and subsequently relied on the -1 value.
Most of the fields did not need to be initialized to -1, and because
we were doing that we had the enum labels "UNTRACKED_CACHE_UNSET" and
"FETCH_NEGOTIATION_UNSET" purely to reflect the resulting state
created this memset() in prepare_repo_settings(). No other code used
or relied on them, more on that below.
For the rest most of the subsequent "are we -1, then read xyz" can
simply be removed by re-arranging what we read first. E.g. when
setting the "index.version" setting we should have first read
"feature.experimental", so that it (and "feature.manyfiles") can
provide a default for our "index.version".
Instead the code setting it, added when "feature.manyFiles"[1] was
created, was using the UPDATE_DEFAULT_BOOL() macro added in an earlier
commit[2]. That macro is now gone, since it was only needed for this
pattern of reading things in the wrong order.
This also fixes an (admittedly obscure) logic error where we'd
conflate an explicit "-1" value in the config with our own earlier
memset() -1.
We can also remove the UPDATE_DEFAULT_BOOL() wrapper added in
[3]. Using it is redundant to simply using the return value from
repo_config_get_bool(), which is non-zero if the provided key exists
in the config.
Details on edge cases relating to the memset() to -1, continued from
"more on that below" above:
* UNTRACKED_CACHE_KEEP:
In [4] the "unset" and "keep" handling for core.untrackedCache was
consolidated. But it while we understand the "keep" value, we don't
handle it differently than the case of any other unknown value.
So let's retain UNTRACKED_CACHE_KEEP and remove the
UNTRACKED_CACHE_UNSET setting (which was always implicitly
UNTRACKED_CACHE_KEEP before). We don't need to inform any code
after prepare_repo_settings() that the setting was "unset", as far
as anyone else is concerned it's core.untrackedCache=keep. if
"core.untrackedcache" isn't present in the config.
* FETCH_NEGOTIATION_UNSET & FETCH_NEGOTIATION_NONE:
Since these two two enum fields added in [5] don't rely on the
memzero() setting them to "-1" anymore we don't have to provide
them with explicit values.
