git_superproject: tell git that superproject is bare

The superproject is initialized as a bare repo in Superproject:_Init().
That means that later operations must treat it as a bare repository,
specifying the gitdir and setting 'bare' appropriately when launching
GitCommand()s. It's also OK not to specify cwd here because GitCommand()
will drop cwd if bare == True anyways.

With this change, it's possible to run `repo init` and `repo sync` with the
Git config 'safe.bareRepository' set to 'explicit'. This config strengthens
Git's security posture against embedded bare repository attacks like
https://github.com/justinsteven/advisories/blob/main/2022_git_buried_bare_repos_and_fsmonitor_various_abuses.md.
