The author.email, author.name, committer.email and committer.name
settings are analogous to the GIT_AUTHOR_* and GIT_COMMITTER_*
environment variables, but for the git config system. This allows them
to be set separately for each repository.
Git supports setting different authorship and committer
information with environment variables. However, environment variables
are set in the shell, so if different authorship and committer
information is needed for different repositories an external tool is
required.
This adds support to git config for author.email, author.name,
committer.email and committer.name settings so this information
can be set per repository.
Also, it generalizes the fmt_ident function so it can handle author vs
committer identification.

The `--preserve-merges` mode of the `rebase` command is slated to be
deprecated soon, as the more powerful `--rebase-merges` mode is
available now, and the latter was designed with the express intent to
address the shortcomings of `--preserve-merges`' design (e.g. the
inability to reorder commits in an interactive rebase).
As such, we will eventually even remove the `--preserve-merges` support,
and along with it, its tests.
In preparation for this, and also to allow the Windows phase of our
automated tests to save some well-needed time when running the test
suite, this commit introduces a new prerequisite REBASE_P, which can be
forced to being unmet by setting the environment variable
`GIT_TEST_SKIP_REBASE_P` to any non-empty string.

Since the very inception of interactive-rebase in 1b1dce4
(Teach rebase an interactive mode, 2007-06-25), there has
been a preemptive check, before looking at any commits, to
see whether the user has a valid name/email combination.
This is convenient, because it means that we abort the
operation before even beginning (rather than just
complaining that we are unable to pick a particular commit).
However, it does the wrong thing when the rebase does not
actually need to generate any new commits (e.g., a
fast-forward with no commits to pick, or one where the base
stays the same, and we just pick the same commits without
rewriting anything). In this case it may complain about the
lack of ident, even though one would not be needed to
complete the operation.
This may seem like mere nit-picking, but because interactive
rebase underlies the "preserve-merges" rebase, somebody who
has set "pull.rebase" to "preserve" cannot make even a
fast-forward pull without a valid ident, as we bail before
even realizing the fast-forward nature.
This commit drops the extra ident check entirely. This means
we rely on individual commands that generate commit objects
to complain. So we will continue to notice and prevent cases
that actually do create commits, but with one important
difference: we fail while actually executing the "pick"
operations, and leave the rebase in a conflicted, half-done
state.
In some ways this is less convenient, but in some ways it is
more so; the user can then manually commit or even "git
rebase --continue" after setting up their ident (or
providing it as a one-off on the command line).

It used to be that:
git config --global user.email "(none)"
was a viable way for people to force themselves to set user.email in
each repository. This was helpful for people with more than one
email address, targeting different email addresses for different
clones, as it barred git from creating a commit unless the user.email
config was set in the per-repo config to the correct email address.
A recent change, 19ce497c (ident: keep a flag for bogus
default_email, 2015-12-10), however, declared that an explicitly
configured user.email is not bogus, no matter what its value is, so
this hack no longer works.
Provide the same functionality by adding a new configuration
variable user.useConfigOnly; when this variable is set, the
user must explicitly set user.email configuration.
