[PATCH v6 5/6] config: clarify meaning of command line scoping

From: Matthew Rogers via GitGitGadget <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

Message-ID: <936ce91c628d018791e7cd74ad60d74ea3f5491e.1580268865.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To: <pull.478.v6.git.1580268865.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Matthew Rogers <mattr94@gmail.com>

CONFIG_SCOPE_CMDLINE is generally used in the code to refer to config values passed in via the -c option. Options passed in using this mechanism share similar scoping characteristics with the --file and --blob options of the 'config' command, namely that they are only in use for that single invocation of git, and that they supersede the normal system/global/local hierarchy. This patch introduces CONFIG_SCOPE_COMMAND to reflect this new idea, which also makes CONFIG_SCOPE_CMDLINE redundant.
