setup_git_directory: delay core.bare/core.worktree errors

If both core.bare and core.worktree are set, we complain
about the bogus config and die. Dying is good, because it
avoids commands running and doing damage in a potentially
incorrect setup. But dying _there_ is bad, because it means
that commands which do not even care about the work tree
cannot run. This can make repairing the situation harder:

  [setup]
  $ git config core.bare true
  $ git config core.worktree /some/path

  [OK, expected.]
  $ git status
  fatal: core.bare and core.worktree do not make sense

  [Hrm...]
  $ git config --unset core.worktree
  fatal: core.bare and core.worktree do not make sense

  [Nope...]
  $ git config --edit
  fatal: core.bare and core.worktree do not make sense

  [Gaaah.]
  $ git help config
  fatal: core.bare and core.worktree do not make sense

Instead, let's issue a warning about the bogus config when
we notice it (i.e., for all commands), but only die when the
command tries to use the work tree (by calling setup_work_tree).
So we now get:

  $ git status
  warning: core.bare and core.worktree do not make sense
  fatal: unable to set up work tree using invalid config

  $ git config --unset core.worktree
  warning: core.bare and core.worktree do not make sense

We have to update t1510 to accomodate this; it uses
symbolic-ref to check whether the configuration works or
not, but of course that command does not use the working
tree. Instead, we switch it to use `git status`, as it
requires a work-tree, does not need any special setup, and
is read-only (so a failure will not adversely affect further
tests).

In addition, we add a new test that checks the desired
behavior (i.e., that running "git config" with the bogus
config does in fact work).
