I really don't understand why this has to be so difficult and why a
'breaking change' is even needed. Duy just added the 'git_dir' field to
the config_options struct in April of this year (2185fde56 config:
handle conditional include when $GIT_DIR is not set up) and now we want
to strip it out again? That's not even two months. Seems very counter
productive and makes the api more unwieldy.

Well actually... in do_git_config_sequence 'git_path("config")' is
called which will convert gitdir to commondir under the hood. you can't
use vanilla gitdir because the config isn't stored in a worktree's
gitdir but rather in the commondir as the config is shared by all
worktrees.
So maybe we actually need to add a field to the 'config_options' struct
of 'commondir' such that the commondir can be used to load the actual
config file and 'gitdir' can be used to handle the 'IncludeIf' stuff.
