Merge branch 'jn/warn-on-inaccessible-loosen' into maint

When attempting to read the XDG-style $HOME/.config/git/config and
finding that $HOME/.config/git is a file, we gave a wrong error
message, instead of treating the case as "a custom config file does
not exist there" and moving on.

* jn/warn-on-inaccessible-loosen:
  config: exit on error accessing any config file
  doc: advertise GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM
  config: treat user and xdg config permission problems as errors
  config, gitignore: failure to access with ENOTDIR is ok
