config.txt: document the semantics of hideRefs with namespaces

Right now, there is no clear definition of how transfer.hideRefs should
behave when a namespace is set. Explain that hideRefs prefixes match
stripped names in that case. This is how hideRefs patterns are currently
handled in receive-pack.

+If a namespace is in use, the namespace prefix is stripped from each

+For example, if `refs/heads/master` is specified in `transfer.hideRefs` and
