reflog: specify default pretty format in configrhi/reflog-default-pretty

The output of git-reflog is currently only customizable by calling
reflog with --pretty=... or overriding the default "oneline" pretty
format in the configuration. To save typing, teach reflog to fall back
to a default format specified in the config option "reflog.pretty"
unless a different pretty format is given on the command line. (This is
similar to the "format.pretty" option for git-log and git-show.)
When this config option is not set, fall back to the old default of
--pretty=oneline --abbrev-hash.
