Revert "color: check color.ui in git_default_config()"

This reverts commit 136c8c8.

That commit was trying to address a bug caused by 4c7f181
(make color.ui default to 'auto', 2013-06-10), in which
plumbing like diff-tree defaulted to "auto" color, but did
not respect a "color.ui" directive to disable it.

But it also meant that we started respecting "color.ui" set
to "always". This was a known problem, but 4c7f181 argued
that nobody ought to be doing that. However, that turned out
to be wrong, and we got a number of bug reports related to
"add -p" regressing in v2.14.2.

Let's revert 136c8c8, fixing the regression to "add -p".
This leaves the problem from 4c7f181 unfixed, but:

  1. It's a pretty obscure problem in the first place. I
     only noticed it while working on the color code, and we
     haven't got a single bug report or complaint about it.

  2. We can make a more moderate fix on top by respecting
     "never" but not "always" for plumbing commands. This
     is just the minimal fix to go back to the working state
     we had before v2.14.2.

Note that this isn't a pure revert. We now have a test in
t3701 which shows off the "add -p" regression. This can be
flipped to success.
