config: document `read_early_config()` and `read_very_early_config()`
It's not clear what `read_early_config()` and `read_very_early_config()` do differently compared to `repo_read_config()` from just looking at their names. Document both of these in the header file to clarify their intent. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
