config: make 'git config list --type=<X>' work

Previously, the --type=<X> argument to 'git config list' was ignored and
did nothing. Now, we add the use of format_config() to the
show_all_config() function so each key-value pair is attempted to be
parsed.

If there is an error in parsing, then the row is not output.

This is a change in behavior! We are starting to respect an option that
was previously ignored, leading to potential user confusion. This is
probably still a good option, since the --type argument did not change
behavior at all previously, so users can get the behavior they expect by
removing the --type argument or adding the --no-type argument.
