libfetchers/git: hardcode --git-dir

Browse source 
To demonstrate the problem:

* You need a `git` at 2.33.3 in your $PATH
* An expression like this in a git repository:

  ``` nix
  {
    outputs = { self, nixpkgs }: {
      packages.foo.x86_64-linux = with nixpkgs.legacyPackages.x86_64-linux;
        runCommand "snens" { } ''
          echo ${(builtins.fetchGit ./.).lastModifiedDate} > $out
        '';
    };
  }
  ```

Now, when instantiating the package via `builtins.getFlake`, it fails on
Nix 2.7 like this:

    $ nix-instantiate -E '(builtins.getFlake "'"$(pwd)"'").packages.foo.x86_64-linux'
    fatal: unsafe repository ('/nix/store/a7j3125km4h8l0p71q6ssfkxamfh5d61-source' is owned by someone else)
    To add an exception for this directory, call:

    	git config --global --add safe.directory /nix/store/a7j3125km4h8l0p71q6ssfkxamfh5d61-source
    error: program 'git' failed with exit code 128
    (use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)

This breaks e.g. `nixops`-deployments using flakes with similar
expressions as shown above.

The cause for this is that `git(1)` tries to find the highest
`.git`-directory in the directory tree and if it finds a such a
directory, but with another owning user (root vs. the user who evaluates
the expression), it fails as above. This was changed recently to fix
CVE-2022-24765[1].

By explicitly specifying `--git-dir`, Git assumes to be in the top-level
directory and doesn't attempt to look for a `.git`-directory in the
parent directories and thus the code-path leading to said error is never
reached.
