merge-recursive: honor diff.algorithm
The documentation claims that "recursive defaults to the diff.algorithm config setting", but this is currently not the case. This fixes it, ensuring that diff.algorithm is used when -Xdiff-algorithm is not supplied. This affects the following porcelain commands: "merge", "rebase", "cherry-pick", "pull", "stash", "log", "am" and "checkout". It also affects the "merge-tree" ancillary interrogator. This change refactors the initialization of merge options to introduce two functions, "init_merge_ui_options" and "init_merge_basic_options" instead of just one "init_merge_options". This design follows the approach used in diff.c, providing initialization methods for porcelain and plumbing commands respectively. Thanks to that, the "replay" and "merge-recursive" plumbing commands remain unaffected by diff.algorithm.
