Subject: CMake: Force use of project directory to look for Git data.

Before this change, building Neovim would recursively search parent
directories for a .git directory. If Neovim was downloaded as a tarball
(i.e. without a .git directory), but placed in a subdirectory of
a Git repository, this caused a CMake error. Such a situation could
occur when packaging Neovim, for example.

Unfortunately, the previous attempt in #3317 did not fix this problem.
