nvim: set EDITOR variable only if installed

Since git core.editor was set in the initial commit, I suspect I wasn't
aware of $EDITOR in the environment. So it's safe to delete
git/gitconfig's core.editor and take it from $EDITOR by default, which
actually checks if nvim is installed.

for git's diff.tool and merge.tool, I don't see a possibility to have a
conditional switch and fallback to vim. I don't expect to work on
another workstation without neovim.
