chore(3p/git): Unvendor git and track patches instead r/2903
This was vendored a long time ago under the expectation that keeping
it in sync with cgit would be easier this way, but it has proven not
to be a big issue.

On the other hand, a vendored copy of git is an annoying maintenance
burden. It is much easier to rebase the single (dottime) patch that we
have.

This removes the vendored copy of git and instead passes the git
source code to cgit via `pkgs.srcOnly`, which includes the applied
patch so that cgit can continue rendering dottime.

-Git 1.8.1.6 Release Notes
-=========================
-
-Fixes since v1.8.1.5
---------------------
-
- * An earlier change to the attribute system introduced at v1.8.1.2 by
-   mistake stopped a pattern "dir" (without trailing slash) from
-   matching a directory "dir" (it only wanted to allow pattern "dir/"
-   to also match).
-
- * The code to keep track of what directory names are known to Git on
-   platforms with case insensitive filesystems can get confused upon a
-   hash collision between these pathnames and looped forever.
-
- * When the "--prefix" option is used to "checkout-index", the code
-   did not pick the correct output filter based on the attribute
-   setting.
-
- * Annotated tags outside refs/tags/ hierarchy were not advertised
-   correctly to the ls-remote and fetch with recent version of Git.
-
- * The logic used by "git diff -M --stat" to shorten the names of
-   files before and after a rename did not work correctly when the
-   common prefix and suffix between the two filenames overlapped.
-
- * "git update-index -h" did not do the usual "-h(elp)" thing.
-
- * perl/Git.pm::cat_blob slurped everything in core only to write it
-   out to a file descriptor, which was not a very smart thing to do.
-
- * The SSL peer verification done by "git imap-send" did not ask for
-   Server Name Indication (RFC 4366), failing to connect SSL/TLS
-   sites that serve multiple hostnames on a single IP.
-
- * "git bundle verify" did not say "records a complete history" for a
-   bundle that does not have any prerequisites.
-
-Also contains various documentation fixes.
