In https://public-inbox.org/git/20180508134248.GA25513@sigill.intra.peff.net/ Jeff King pointed out that an invalid config section is not an indicator of a bug, as it is usually provided by the user.

So we should not throw a fit and tell the user about a bug that they might even report.

Instead, let's just error out.
