get-send-email currently makes the assumption that the 'sendemail-validate' hook exists inside of the repository.

Since the introduction of `core.hooksPath` configuration option in v2.9, this is no longer true.

Instead of assuming a hardcoded repo relative path, query git for the actual path of the hooks directory.

This patch does not include a test for this bug fix. This is entirely due to me not being able to think up a way to test this. So I'm very much open to suggestions.

There's an "invoke hook" test in t9001-send-email.sh which should be easy to tweak (or mostly copy/pasted to another test) to run the same way once the hook is moved from .git/hooks to somedir/ and -c core.hooksPath=somedir is set.

This looks like it work, small nits:
1. This would be better in perl/Git.pm, it already has various accessors
   etc. for these rev-parse'd values. You could just pass a a new
   GetHooksPath => 1 to Git->repository() and if so populate this, then
   call that as $repo->git_path_hooks.
2. FWIW it's more idiomatic in perl to just do : chomp(my $x = y()); not
   my $x = y(); chomp $x. The chomp operator works in-place, but once
   you'd use the helpers in Git.pm for this they'd do all that for you.

I reworked this, but being a level 1 perl coder I don't quite grok the "GetHooksPath => 1 to Git->repository()" part of your suggestion.

This is what I came up with.
