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 v2.7.3 Release Notes
-========================
-
-Fixes since v2.7.2
-------------------
-
- * Traditionally, the tests that try commands that work on the
-   contents in the working tree were named with "worktree" in their
-   filenames, but with the recent addition of "git worktree"
-   subcommand, whose tests are also named similarly, it has become
-   harder to tell them apart.  The traditional tests have been renamed
-   to use "work-tree" instead in an attempt to differentiate them.
-
- * Many codepaths forget to check return value from git_config_set();
-   the function is made to die() to make sure we do not proceed when
-   setting a configuration variable failed.
-
- * Handling of errors while writing into our internal asynchronous
-   process has been made more robust, which reduces flakiness in our
-   tests.
-
- * "git show 'HEAD:Foo[BAR]Baz'" did not interpret the argument as a
-   rev, i.e. the object named by the pathname with wildcard
-   characters in a tree object.
-
- * "git rev-parse --git-common-dir" used in the worktree feature
-   misbehaved when run from a subdirectory.
-
- * The "v(iew)" subcommand of the interactive "git am -i" command was
-   broken in 2.6.0 timeframe when the command was rewritten in C.
-
- * "git merge-tree" used to mishandle "both sides added" conflict with
-   its own "create a fake ancestor file that has the common parts of
-   what both sides have added and do a 3-way merge" logic; this has
-   been updated to use the usual "3-way merge with an empty blob as
-   the fake common ancestor file" approach used in the rest of the
-   system.
-
- * The memory ownership rule of fill_textconv() API, which was a bit
-   tricky, has been documented a bit better.
-
- * The documentation did not clearly state that the 'simple' mode is
-   now the default for "git push" when push.default configuration is
-   not set.
-
- * Recent versions of GNU grep are pickier when their input contains
-   arbitrary binary data, which some of our tests uses.  Rewrite the
-   tests to sidestep the problem.
-
- * A helper function "git submodule" uses since v2.7.0 to list the
-   modules that match the pathspec argument given to its subcommands
-   (e.g. "submodule add <repo> <path>") has been fixed.
-
- * "git config section.var value" to set a value in per-repository
-   configuration file failed when it was run outside any repository,
-   but didn't say the reason correctly.
-
- * The code to read the pack data using the offsets stored in the pack
-   idx file has been made more carefully check the validity of the
-   data in the idx.
-
-Also includes documentation and test updates.
