t1305: use `--git-dir=.` for bare repo in include cycle test
Earlier tests in t1305 overwrite `$HOME/.gitconfig` with their own content as part of testing config includes. This clobbers the `safe.bareRepository=all` entry that test-lib.sh writes when `WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES` is in effect, causing `git -C cycle config` to fail with "not in a git directory" when it tries to access the bare repository created by `git init --bare cycle`. Use `--git-dir=.` to access the bare repo explicitly, avoiding the dependency on global config for repository discovery.
