It is much easier to reason about, when the config code to set/unset
variables or to remove/rename sections does not rely on a global (or
file-local) variable.

This extends our config parser so that it can optionally produce an event
stream via callback function, where it reports e.g. when a comment was
parsed, or a section header, etc.

This parser will be used subsequently to handle the scenarios better where
removing config entries would make sections empty, or where a new entry
could be added to an already-existing, empty section.

We already have a test demonstrating that removing the last entry from a
config section fails to remove the section header of the now-empty
section.

The same can happen, of course, if we remove the last entries in one fell
swoop. This is *also* a bug, and should be fixed at the same time.

During the review of the first iteration of the patch series to remove
sections that become empty upon --unset or --unset-all, Jeff King
identified a couple of problematic cases with the backtracking approach
that was still used then to "look backwards for the section header":
https://public-inbox.org/git/20180329213229.GG2939@sigill.intra.peff.net/

This patch adds a couple of concocted examples designed to fool a
backtracking parser.

In https://public-inbox.org/git/7vvc8alzat.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org/
a reasonable patch was made quite a bit less so by changing a test case
demonstrating a bug to a test case that demonstrates that we ask for too
much: the test case 'unsetting the last key in a section removes header'
now expects a future bug fix to be able to determine whether a free-form
comment above a section header refers to said section or not.

Rather than shooting for the stars (and not even getting off the
ground), let's start shooting for something obtainable and be reasonably
confident that we *can* get it.

The test case 'unset with cont. lines' relied on a bug that is about to
be fixed: it tests *explicitly* that removing the last entry from a
config section leaves an *empty* section behind.

Let's fix this test case not to rely on that behavior, simply by
preventing the section from becoming empty.

When replacing multiple config entries at once, we did not re-set the
flag that indicates whether we need to insert a new-line before the new
entry. As a consequence, an extra new-line was inserted under certain
circumstances.

Currently, we are slightly overzealous When removing an entry from a
config file of this form:

	[abc]a
	[xyz]
		key = value

When calling `git config --unset abc.a` on this file, it leaves this
(invalid) config behind:

	[
	[xyz]
		key = value

The reason is that we try to search for the beginning of the line (or
for the end of the preceding section header on the same line) that
defines abc.a, but as an optimization, we subtract 2 from the offset
pointing just after the definition before we call
find_beginning_of_line(). That function, however, *also* performs that
optimization and promptly fails to find the section header correctly.
