    remote: Handle missing config values when deleting a remote
    
    Somehow I ended up with the following in my ~/.gitconfig:
    [branch "master"]
    remote = origin
    merge = master
    rebase = true
    
    I assume something went crazy while I was running the git.git tests
    some time ago, and that I never noticed until now.
    
    This is not a good configuration, but it shouldn't cause problems. But
    it does. Specifically, if you have this in your config, and you
    perform the following set of actions:
    
    create a remote
    fetch from that remote
    create a branch off of the remote master branch called "master"
    delete the branch
    delete the remote
    
    The remote delete fails with the message "Could not find key
    'branch.master.rebase' to delete". This is because it's iterating over
    the config entries (including the ones in the global config) and
    believes that there is a master branch which must therefore have these
    config keys.
