[PATCH v4 3/7] clean: read user input with strbuf_getline()

From

The inputs that are read are all answers that are given by the user when interacting with git on the commandline. As these answers are not supposed to contain a meaningful CR it is safe to replace strbuf_getline_lf() by strbuf_getline().

After being read, the input is trimmed. This leads to accepting user input with spaces, e.g. " y ", as a valid answer in the interactive cleaning process.

Although trimming would not be required anymore to remove a potential CR, we don't want to change the existing behavior with this patch. Thus, the trimming is kept in place.
