fix(#3763): pass --raw at every shipped config-get bash call site (#3961)

* test(#3763): guard every shipped config-get substitution on --raw

* fix(#3763): pass --raw at every shipped config-get bash call site

config-get without --raw prints JSON.stringify(value), so string-typed values
reach bash with literal quotes and every string comparison silently never
matches (#3763). --raw added at 75 command-substitution sites across shipped
content; four JSON consumers (default_reviewers, sub_repos, pr_body_sections,
code_review_depth_overrides) deliberately keep default JSON output.
