config: eliminate config_exclusive_filename
This is a magic global variable that was intended as an override to the usual git-config lookup process. Once upon a time, you could specify GIT_CONFIG to any git program, and it would look only at that file. This turned out to be confusing and cause a lot of bugs for little gain. As a result, dc87183 (Only use GIT_CONFIG in "git config", not other programs, 2008-06-30) took this away for all callers except git-config. Since git-config no longer uses it either, the variable can just go away. As the diff shows, nobody was setting to anything except NULL, so we can just replace any sites where it was read with NULL.
