The Git module now supports SSH and X.509 signing in addition to
OpenPGP/GnuPG, via setting the `programs.git.signing.format` option.
It defaults to `openpgp` for now as a backwards compatibility measure,
but I feel like we shouldn't enforce GPG as the default on everyone,
especially for people who use SSH signing like me.
Accordingly, `programs.git.signing.gpgPath` has been renamed to
`programs.git.signing.signer`, as now the signer binary is not
restricted to GnuPG. Users should only get a warning and everything
should continue to work.

We currently have no way of specifying the sender's name inside the
From field, making a patch sent through `git send-email` appear as
coming from "xxx@domain.com".
In this commit we make this field follow the standard
realName <email>
format.
The git-send-email [0] script uses StartTLS if `smtpEncryption` is set
to `tls`, which can break services that don't support StartTLS.

When setting values using the `git config --set` command, git formats
the file a bit differently. This changes the output so it maps to that
format.
Differences:
* each `key = value` in a section is prefixed by a tab character
* the `=` between the key and the value is surrounded by spaces
