[PATCH, maint] setup: make sure git_dir path is in a permanent buffer, getenv(3) case

getenv(3) returns not-permanent buffer which may be changed by e.g. putenv(3) call (*).

In practice I've noticed this when trying to do `git commit -m abc` inside msysgit under wine, getting

    $ git commit -m abc
    fatal: could not open 'DIR=.git/COMMIT_EDITMSG': No such file or directory
                           ^^^^
    (notice introduced 'DIR=' artifact.)

The problem was showing itself only with -m option, and actually, as debugging showed, originally

    git_dir = getenv("GIT_DIR")

returned pointer to

        "GIT_DIR=.git\0"
                 ^
               git_dir

, we stored it in git_dir, than, after processing -m git-commit option, we did setenv("GIT_EDITOR", ":") which as (*) says changed environment variables memory layout - something like this

       "...\0GIT_DIR=.git\0"
                 ^
               git_dir

and oops - we got wrong git_dir.

Avoid that by strdupping getenv("GIT_DIR") result like we did in 06f354 (setup: make sure git dir path is in a permanent buffer). Unfortunately this also shows that other getenv usage inside git needs auditing...

(*) from man 3 getenv:

       The implementation of getenv() is not required to  be  reentrant.   The
       string  pointed  to  by  the return value of getenv() may be statically
       allocated, and can be  modified  by  a  subsequent  call  to  getenv(),
       putenv(3), setenv(3), or unsetenv(3).
