Bug Fixes

• prevent newline amplification
  A fuzzer found input sized 780kb, but the output becomes
  180MB in size, ultimately taking 48s to parse on M1 Pro.

  Note that the parsing itself is fast, but we seem to modify
  the input in such a way that parsing takes way longer than it
  should. That might be another issue which it will probably find
  next, let's wait for it.

• File::from_globals() now also provides options of the Git installation.
  That way, it's usable for learning everything about credentials for example.

New Features (BREAKING)

• gix-config convenience initiative
  A new gix_config::AsKey trait allows all gix_config::File methods
  to receive an implementation of AsKey instead of the tuple of
  (section, subsection, value_name). This is the default, and all
  methods that take a tuple have been renamed to <name>_by(), note the _by suffix.

  The terminology was reworked so that key is now only used to identify a value.

  This change also affects the public API of gix, which provides
  ways to set values on configuration snapshots which now by default
  will only take a AsKey implementation.

  Note that gix::config::tree::* keys now also implement AsKey,
  which allows them to be used more conveniently when setting values,
  too.
