docs: document core.hooksPath=/dev/null
If a user wishes to disable hooks, then they can do so using the
established pattern of setting 'core.hooksPath' to /dev/null. This is
already tested in t1350-config-hooks-path.sh, but has not previously
been visible in the documentation.
Update the documentation to include this as an option.
