edit-config: Better support for custom editors. (#4551)
* edit-config: Better support for custom editors.
Some systems (Debian for example) don't use the `$EDITOR` environment
variable to specify the preferred default editor. On most such systems,
there is instead a symbolic link (or a shell script) called `editor`
located somewhere in `$PATH` which will invoke the appropriate command.
This updates the `edit-config` script to use this command if present in
preference to just invoking `vi` as the editor.
* Add missing quotes.
