config: introduce an Operating System-specific includeIf condition

It is relatively common for users to maintain identical `~/.gitconfig`
files across all of their setups, using the `includeIf` construct
liberally to adjust the settings to the respective setup as needed.

In case of Operating System-specific adjustments, Git currently offers
no support to the users and they typically use a work-around like this:

	[includeIf "gitdir:/home/"]
		path = ~/.gitconfig-linux
	[includeIf "gitdir:/Users/"]
		path = ~/.gitconfig-mac
	[includeIf "gitdir:C:"]
		path = ~/.gitconfig-windows

However, this is fragile, as it would not even allow to discern between
Operating Systems that happen to host their home directories in
`/home/`, such as Linux and the BSDs.

Let's introduce a new condition: `os:<uname-s>` where `<uname-s>` is the
system name, i.e. the output of `uname -s`.

This addresses git-for-windows#4125
