Fix $EDITOR regression introduced by rewrite in C.
When git-tag and git-commit launches the editor, they used to honor EDITOR="editor -options args..." but recent rewrite in C insisted on $EDITOR to be the path to the editor executable. This restores the older behaviour. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
