advice: allow disabling the automatic hint in advise_if_enabled()
Using advise_if_enabled() to display an advice will automatically
include instructions on how to disable the advice, alongside the main
advice:
hint: use --reapply-cherry-picks to include skipped commits
hint: Disable this message with "git config advice.skippedCherryPicks false"
To do so, we provide a knob which can be used to disable the advice.
But also to tell us the opposite: to show the advice.
Let's not include the deactivation instructions for an advice if the
user explicitly sets its visibility.
