Use tab-size from EditorConfig

For projects that use tab width != 8, users want to set the "tab-size"
config option.  Many projects these days already state their preference
in a ".editorconfig" file. GitHub honors that file when rendering
diffs and blobs.

Add an optional dependency to the EditorConfig library to read such
files. Prefer the tab-size from EditorConfig, over the "tab-size"
config option. Not being able to override the EditorConfig tab-size
seems counterintuitive but I don't see why someone would want that,
so I'd mayb ewait until someone complains. If we want that we could
implement a "tab-size-from-editorconfig" option that defaults to true.

Implementation hiccups:

Unfortunately, we currently don't always fill "repo.worktree" - only
in the special cases where either of $GIT_WORK_TREE or core.worktree is
defined. Hence we need to run an extra "git rev-parse --show-toplevel".
We do run "git rev-parse --is-inside-worktree [...]" elsewhere but
we can't add "--show-toplevel" to that call or else we'd fail when
run in bare repos.

The use of diff_get_pathname() is a bit wasteful, we should probably
refactor this to just remember the last line of type LINE_DIFF_ADD_FILE
or LINE_DIFF_HEADER.

Closes #840
