run-command: honor "gc.auto" for auto-maintenance

The "gc.auto" configuration has traditionally been used to turn off
running git-gc(1) as part of our auto-maintenance. We have eventually
switched over to git-maintenance(1) in a95ce12430 (maintenance: replace
run_auto_gc(), 2020-09-17), and with 1942d48380 (maintenance: optionally
skip --auto process, 2020-08-28) we have introduced "maintenance.auto"
to control whether or not to run auto-maintenance.

At that point though we still shelled out to git-gc(1) internally. So
if "gc.auto=0" was set we would still _execute_ git-maintenance(1), but
the command would have exited fast because git-gc(1) itself knew to
honor the config key.

This has recently changed though, as we have adapted the default
maintenance strategy to not use git-gc(1) anymore. The consequence is
that "gc.auto=0" doesn't have an effect anymore, which is a somewhat
surprising change in behaviour for our users.

Adapt `run_auto_maintenance()` so that it knows to also read "gc.auto",
similar to how it also reads both "maintenance.autoDetach" and
"gc.autoDetach".
