[PATCH 3/9] setup: split off $GIT_DIR-set case from setup_git_directory_gently

If $GIT_DIR is set, setup_git_directory_gently does not have to do any repository discovery at all. Split off a function for the validation it still does do, in the hope that this will make setup_git_directory_gently proper less daunting to read.
