clang-format: re-adjust line break penalties

In 42efde4 (clang-format: adjust line break penalties, 2017-09-29) we
adjusted the line break penalties to really fine tune what we care about
while doing line breaks. Modify some of those to be more inline with
what we care about in the Git project now.

We need to understand that the values set to penalties in
'.clang-format' are relative to each other and do not hold any absolute
value. The penalty arguments take an 'Unsigned' value, so we have some
liberty over the values we can set.

First, in that commit, we decided, that under no circumstances do we
want to exceed 80 characters. This seems a bit too strict. We do
overshoot this limit from time to time to prioritize readability. So
let's reduce the value for 'PenaltyExcessCharacter' to 10. This means we
that we add a penalty of 10 for each character that exceeds the column
limit. By itself this is enough to restrict to column limit. Tuning
other penalties in relation to this is what is important.

The penalty `PenaltyBreakAssignment` talks about the penalty for
breaking an assignment operator on to the next line. In our project, we
are okay with this, so giving a value of 5, which is below the value for
'PenaltyExcessCharacter' ensures that in the end, even 1 character over
the column limit is not worth keeping an assignment on the same line.

Similarly set the penalty for breaking before the first call parameter
'PenaltyBreakBeforeFirstCallParameter' and the penalty for breaking
comments 'PenaltyBreakComment' and the penalty for breaking string
literals 'PenaltyBreakString' also to 5.

Finally, we really care about not breaking the return type into its own
line and we really care about not breaking before an open parenthesis.
This avoids weird formatting like:

   static const struct strbuf *
          a_really_really_large_function_name(struct strbuf resolved,
          const char *path, int flags)

or

   static const struct strbuf *a_really_really_large_function_name(
   	    struct strbuf resolved, const char *path, int flags)

to instead have something more readable like:

   static const struct strbuf *a_really_really_large_function_name(struct strbuf resolved,
                                                                   const char *path,
                                                                   int flags)

(note: the tabs here have been replaced by spaces for easier reading)

This is done by bumping the values of 'PenaltyReturnTypeOnItsOwnLine'
and 'PenaltyBreakOpenParenthesis' to 300. This is so that we can allow a
few characters above the 80 column limit to make code more readable.
