[PATCH 3/3] t1300: don't needlessly work with `core.foo` configs

We use various made-up config keys in the "core" section for no real reason. Change them to work in the "section" section instead and be careful to also change "cores" to "sections". Make sure to also catch "Core", "CoReS" and similar.

There are a few instances that actually want to work with a real "core" config such as `core.bare` or `core.editor`. After this, it's clearer that they work with "core" for a reason.
