[PATCHv3] git mergetool: Don't repeat merge tool candidates

git mergetool listed some candidates for mergetools twice, depending on the environment.

Signed-off-by: Johannes Gilger <heipei@hackvalue.de>

This improves on v2 of this patch as it appends non-gui merge-tools even 
if $DISPLAY is set. It still makes the assumption that KDE_FULL_SESSION 
and GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID are never set at the same time. If this 
were to happen the tool would simply prefer meld over kdiff3.
