My knee-jerk reaction is that parse_maybe_bool() is broken in that
it should do everything that config_maybe_bool() does.  I wonder why
we do not call git_parse_int() like git_config_maybe_bool() does?

... Ahh, that is because bool_or_int() wants to know that "1" is an
int and not a bool, and parse_maybe_bool() is designed to cater to
the need of that thing, in addition to config_maybe_bool().  And the
"--signed=" thing wants parse_bool_or_string(), not bool_or_int(),
so we should treat "1" as true and "0" as false.  There is no way to
do so in the current code and that is why you have the new _text()
thing in patches 3-4/6.

Makes sense.
