config: fix several access(NULL) calls

When $HOME is unset, home_config_paths fails and returns NULL pointers for user_config and xdg_config. Valgrind complains with Syscall param access(pathname) points to unaddressable byte(s). Don't call blindly access() on these variables, but test them for NULL-ness before. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <[email protected]>
