From: Haaris Mehmood <hsed@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Add --expiry-date as a data-type for config files when
'git config --get' is used. This will return any relative
or fixed dates from config files as a timestamp value.
This is useful for scripts (e.g. gc.reflogexpire) that work
with timestamps so that '2.weeks' can be converted to a format
acceptable by those scripts/functions.
Following the convention of git_config_pathname(), move
the helper function required for this feature from
builtin/reflog.c to builtin/config.c where other similar
functions exist (e.g. for --bool or --path), and match
the order of parameters with other functions (i.e. output
pointer as first parameter).
