If options pertaining to how the diff is displayed is provided to
`git stash show`, the command will ignore the stash.showIncludeUntracked
configuration variable, defaulting to not showing any untracked files.
This is unintuitive behaviour since the format of the diff output and
whether or not to display untracked files are orthogonal.

Use stash.showIncludeUntracked even when diff options are given. Of
course, this is still overridable via the command-line options.

Update the documentation to explicitly say which configuration variables
will be overridden when a diff options are given.

It does make sense to keep "what to show" and "how to show them"
orthogonal.  It seems that not enough thoguht went into the topic
before it got merged to 'next', which is quite sad.

OK.  We initialize this to what the config said...

... without limiting the defaulting only to the case where

As this is a fix to a part of a new feature that was broken from day
one, let's take it and fast-track.

Thanks.
