While the cached configset interface is more pleasant to
use, it is not appropriate for "early" config like pager
setup, which must sometimes do tricky things like reading
from ".git/config" even when we have not set up the
repository.

As a preparatory step to handling these cases better, let's
switch back to using the callback interface, which gives us
more control.

Note that this is essentially a revert of 586f414a

 (pager.c:
replace `git_config()` with `git_config_get_value()`,
2014-08-07), but with some minor style fixups and
modernizations.
