This PR adds a --git-config flag to pass additional Git configurations to the Git executable via the -c name value arguments. This flag can be specified multiple times, preserving spaces inside the configuration values in each specification.
This flag allows running nixpkgs-review with trusted users (usually root) but with the original user's Git configurations (such as user.name and user.email), which helps gain builder access for multi-system reviews.
