git-core: Support retrieving passwords with GIT_ASKPASS
git tries to read a password from the terminal in imap-send and
when talking to a http server that requires authentication.
When a GUI is driving git, however, the end user is not paying
attention to the terminal (there may not even be a terminal).
GUI would appear to hang forever.
Fix this problem by allowing a password-retrieving command
to be specified in GIT_ASKPASS
