[PATCH v8 09/15] bugreport: generate config safelist based on docs

[Emily Shaffer <emilyshaffer@google.com>]

Add a new step to the build to generate a safelist of git-config
variables which are appropriate to include in the output of
git-bugreport. New variables can be added to the safelist by annotating
their documentation in Documentation/config with the "annotate" macro,
which is a no-op in AsciiDoc and AsciiDoctor.

Some configs are private in nature, and can contain remote URLs,
passwords, or other sensitive information. In the event that a user
doesn't notice their information while reviewing a bugreport, that user
may leak their credentials to other individuals, mailing lists, or bug
tracking tools inadvertently. Heuristic blocklisting of configuration
keys is imperfect and prone to false negatives; given the nature of the
information which can be leaked, a safelist is more reliable.

However, it's possible that in some situations, an organization may be
less concerned with privacy of things like remote URLs and branch names,
and more concerned with ease of diagnosis for their support staff. In
those cases, it may make more sense for that organization to modify the
code to use a blocklist. To that end, we should try to mark configs which
are definitely safe, and configs which are definitely unsafe, and leave
blank configs which are somewhere in between. To mark a config as safe,
add "annotate:bugreport[include]" to the corresponding line in the
config documentation; to mark it as unsafe, add
"annotate:bugreport[exclude]" instead.

Generating bugreport-config-safelist.h at build time by grepping the
documentation for this new macro helps us prevent staleness. The macro
itself is a no-op and should not alter the appearance of the
documentation in either AsciiDoc or AsciiDoctor, confirmable by running:

  cd Documentation
  ./doc-diff --asciidoctor HEAD^ HEAD
  ./doc-diff --asciidoc HEAD^ HEAD

Diffing the rendered HTML shows that only inline comments were added,
which shouldn't be a problem.

Additionally, add annotations to the sendemail config documentation in
order to demonstrate a proof of concept.
