Issue Description

I have a use case which needs to disable the command prompt status while still using the Get-GitStatus function. Disabling the prompt is easy: set GitPromptSettings.EnablePromptStatus to false. But, Get-GitStatus also checks that setting, making the command ineffective.

If this coupling is not intentional, I propose adding a separate setting, such as EnableGetStatus or EnableGetGitStatus, so that these pieces of functionality can be managed separately.

If it is intentional, a simple enough workaround is wrapping Get-GitStatus with a function that temporarily changes the GitPromptSettings.
