doc: fix config API documentation about config_with_options
In commit dc8441fdb ("config: don't implicitly use gitdir or commondir",
2017-06-14) the function git_config_with_options was renamed to
config_with_options to better reflect the fact that it does not access
the git global config or the repo config by default.
However Documentation/technical/api-config.txt still refers to the
previous name, fix that.
While at it also update the documentation about the extra parameters,
because they too changed since the initial definition.
