[core.editor] improve first time setup to include Notepad++
On a Windows system, even though you have setup Notepad++ as default
system editor, Git seems to behave oddly during operations and you may trip over
glitches, like prematurely terminated Git operations before your edits
are complete.
Setting up core.editor in Git explicitly to Notepad++ fixes this behaviour.
Vim, Emacs and Notepad++ are popular text editors often used by developers on Unix based systems like Linux and OS X or a Windows system.
