Junio C Hamano 5c71d6b63a attr.tree: HEAD:.gitattributes is no longer the default in a bare repo
51441e64 (stop using HEAD for attributes in bare repository by
default, 2024-05-03) has addressed a recent performance regression
by partially reverting a topic that was merged at 26dd307c (Merge
branch 'jc/attr-tree-config', 2023-10-30).  But it forgot to update
the documentation to remove the mention of a special case in bare
repositories.

Let's update the document before the update hits the next release.

attr.tree::
A reference to a tree in the repository from which to read attributes,
instead of the `.gitattributes` file in the working tree. If the value
does not resolve to a valid tree object, an empty tree is used instead.
When the `GIT_ATTR_SOURCE` environment variable or `--attr-source`
command line option are used, this configuration variable has no effect.
