Support changing git config through app.ini, use diff.algorithm=histogram by default (#24860)

Close #13454 , Close #23255, Close #14697 (and maybe more related
issues)

Many users have the requirement to customize the git config. This PR
introduces an easy way: put the options in Gitea's app.ini
`[git.config]`, then the config options will be applied to git config.

And it can support more flexible default config values, eg: now
`diff.algorithm=histogram` by default. According to:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/32367597/4754037 , `histogram diff` is
efficient and doesn't like to cause server-side problems.
