Add "core.eol" config variable

Introduce a new configuration variable, "core.eol", that allows the user
to set which line endings to use for end-of-line-normalized files in the
working directory.  It defaults to "native", which means CRLF on Windows
and LF everywhere else.

Note that "core.autocrlf" overrides core.eol.  This means that

[core]
	autocrlf = true

puts CRLFs in the working directory even if core.eol is set to "lf".
