When running log/show/whatchanged from the command line, the user may
want to use a preferred format without having to pass --pretty=<fmt>
option every time from the command line. This teaches these three
commands to honor a new configuration variable, format.pretty.
The --pretty option given from the command line will override the
configured format.
The earlier patch fixed the only in-tree caller that runs these
commands for a purpose other than showing the output directly to the
end user (the other in-tree caller is "git bisect visualize", whose
output directly goes to the end user and should be affected by this
patch).
