Tidy up git mergetool's backup file behaviour
Currently a backup pre-merge file with conflict markers is sometimes kept with a .orig extenstion and sometimes removed depending on the particular merge tool used. This patch makes the handling consistent across all merge tools and configurable via a new mergetool.keepBackup config variable Signed-off-by: Charles Bailey <charles@hashpling.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Override the path for the given tool. This is useful in case
your tool is not in the PATH.
+mergetool.keepBackup::
+ After performing a merge, the original file with conflict markers
+ can be saved as a file with a `.orig` extension. If this variable
+ is set to `false` then this file is not preserved. Defaults to
+ `true` (i.e. keep the backup files).

The size of the window used by linkgit:git-pack-objects[1] when no
window size is given on the command line. Defaults to 10.
