And if the user has
[status]
short = no
in $GIT_DIR/config for this particular project, perhaps in order to
override a blanket setting
[status]
short
that is in $HOME/.gitconfig, what should happen?
Perhaps you need
if (git_config_bool(...))
status_format = STATUS_FORMAT_SHORT;
else
status_format = STATUS_FORMAT_NONE; /* default */
or something here?

A few observations.
* It is very good that you check not just positive cases that show
off how well this new feature works (i.e. status.short set
without command line override gives a short output) but also
negative cases that make sure the new feature does not kick in
when it should not. You test all four combinations, which is
good.
* If any of the first three fails, you may not have the correct
string in expected_short or expected_noshort when running later
tests that depend on them.
* Similarly, if the first one to set showUntrackedFiles fails, the
last one to --unset would also fail.
Perhaps limiting the number of tests that must pass (otherwise the
remainder becomes useless) by doing something like this is a better
alternative:
test_expect_success 'setup for status.short' '
git status --short >expected_short &&
git status --no-short >expected_noshort
'
test_expect_success '-c status.short=true == status -s' '
test_config status.showUntrackedFile no &&
test_config status.
