Documentation/git.txt: improve documentation of 'GIT_TRACE*' variables

Separate GIT_TRACE description into what it prints and how to configure
where trace output is printed to. Change other GIT_TRACE_* descriptions to
refer to GIT_TRACE.

Add descriptions for GIT_TRACE_SETUP and GIT_TRACE_SHALLOW.
