maintenance: create maintenance.<task>.enabled config

Currently, a normal run of "git maintenance run" will only run the 'gc'
task, as it is the only one enabled. This is mostly for backwards-
compatible reasons since "git maintenance run --auto" commands replaced
previous "git gc --auto" commands after some Git processes. Users could
manually run specific maintenance tasks by calling "git maintenance run
--task=<task>" directly.

Allow users to customize which steps are run automatically using config.
The 'maintenance.<task>.enabled' option then can turn on these other
tasks (or turn off the 'gc' task).
