Change the core.abbrev config variable and the corresponding --abbrev
command-line option to support relative values such as +1 or -1.

Before Linus's e6c587c733 ("abbrev: auto size the default
abbreviation", 2016-09-30) git would default to abbreviating object
names to 7-hexdigits, and only picking longer SHA-1s as needed if that
was ambiguous.

That change instead set the default length as a function of the
estimated current count of objects:

    Based on the expectation that we would see collision in a
    repository with 2^(2N) objects when using object names shortened
    to first N bits, use sufficient number of hexdigits to cover the
    number of objects in the repository.  Each hexdigit (4-bits) we
    add to the shortened name allows us to have four times (2-bits) as
    many objects in the repository.

By supporting relative values for core.abbrev we can allow users to
consistently opt-in for either a higher or lower probability of
collision, without needing to hardcode a given numeric value like
"10", which would be overkill on some repositories, and far to small
on others.
