Introduce a helper print_sha1_ellipsis() that pays attention to the
GIT_PRINT_SHA1_ELLIPSIS environment variable, and prepare the tests to
unconditionally set it for the test pieces that will be broken once the code
stops showing the extra dots by default.
The removal of these dots is merely a plan at this step and has not happened
yet but soon will.
Document GIT_PRINT_SHA1_ELLIPSIS.

v2: rename patch series & focus on removal of ellipses
v3: env var instead of config option, use one-line comments where appropriate, preserve indent level
v4: improve env var handling (rename, helper func to query, docu)
v5: rewrite series to take Junio's comments in <xmqqd145k9td.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> aboard

+`GIT_PRINT_SHA1_ELLIPSIS` (deprecated)::
+ If set to `yes`, print an ellipsis following an
+ (abbreviated) SHA-1 value. This affects indications of
+ detached HEADs (linkgit:git-checkout[1]) and the raw
+ diff output (linkgit:git-diff[1]). Printing an
