git-svn: allow disabling expensive broken symlink checks
Since dbc6c74d0858d77e61e092a48d467e725211f8e9, git-svn has had
an expensive check for broken symlinks that exist in some
repositories. This leads to a heavy performance hit on
repositories with many empty blobs that are not supposed to be
symlinks.
The workaround is enabled by default; and may be disabled via:
git config svn.brokenSymlinkWorkaround false
