The previous commit added a new format for $GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS which is able to robustly handle subsections with "=" in them. Let's start writing the new format. Unfortunately, this does much less than you'd hope, because "git -c" itself has the same ambiguity problem! But it's still worth doing: - we've now pushed the problem from the inter-process communication into the "-c" command-line parser. This would free us up to later add an unambiguous format there (e.g., separate arguments like "git --config key value", etc). - for --config-env, the parser already disallows "=" in the environment variable name. So: git --config-env section.with=equals.key=ENVVAR will robustly set section.with=equals.key to the contents of $ENVVAR. The new test shows the improvement for --config-env.
