Refactor early config parsing

The Trace2 machinery wishes to parse the system and the global config
early. To this end, it taps into the `common-main` framework to run
first thing.

There are more Git features that could benefit from such a handling,
most notably the Windows-specific `core.longPaths` setting: If a user
has worktrees whose path already requires long paths support, we cannot
wait until we parse the the config settings in the usual way because
the gitdir discovery needs to happen first and would fail because any
`core.longPaths` setting in, say, `~/.gitconfig` would not have been
parsed yet.

To that end, let's refactor Trace2's early config parsing so that other
users can tap into it, too.
