Teach git var about GIT_EDITOR
Expose the command used by launch_editor() for scripts to use.
This should allow one to avoid searching for a proper editor
separately in each command.
git_editor(void) uses the logic to decide which editor to use
that used to live in launch_editor(). The function returns NULL
if there is no suitable editor; the caller is expected to issue
an error message when appropriate.
launch_editor() uses git_editor() and gives the error message the
same way as before when EDITOR is not set.
"git var GIT_EDITOR" gives the editor name, or an error message
when there is no appropriate one.
"git var -l" gives GIT_EDITOR=name only if there is an
appropriate editor.
