sequencer: do not export GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE for 'exec'

Commands executed from `git rebase --exec` can give different behavior from within that environment than they would outside of it, due to the fact that sequencer.c exports both GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE. For example, if the relevant script calls something like git -C ../otherdir log --format=%H --no-walk the user may be surprised to find that the command above does not show a commit hash from ../otherdir, because $GIT_DIR prevents automatic gitdir detection and makes the -C option useless. This is a regression in behavior from the original legacy implemented-in-shell rebase. It is perhaps rare for it to cause problems in practice, especially since most small problems that were caused by this area of bugs has been fixed-up in the past in a way that masked the particular bug observed without fixing the real underlying problem. An explanation of how we arrived at the current situation is perhaps merited. The setting of GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE done by sequencer.c arose from a sequence of historical accidents: * When rebase was implemented as a shell command, it would call git-sh-setup, which among other things would set GIT_DIR -- but not export it. This meant that when rebase --exec commands were run via /bin/sh -c "$COMMAND" they would not inherit the GIT_DIR setting. The fact that GIT_DIR was not set in the run $COMMAND is the behavior we'd like to restore. * When the rebase--helper builtin was introduced to allow incrementally replacing shell with C code, we had an implementation that was half shell, half C. In particular, commit 18633e1a22 ("rebase -i: use the rebase--helper builtin", 2017-02-09) added calls to exec git rebase--helper ... which caused rebase--helper to inherit the GIT_DIR environment variable from the shell. git's setup would change the environment variable from an absolute path to a relative one (".git"), but would leave it set. This meant that when rebase --exec commands were run via run_command_v_opt(...) they would inherit the GIT_DIR setting. * In commit 09d7b6c6fa ("sequencer: pass absolute GIT_DIR to exec commands", 2017-10-31), it was noted that the GIT_DIR caused problems with some commands; e.g. git rebase --exec 'cd subdir && git describe' ... would have GIT_DIR=.git which was invalid due to the change to the subdirectory. Instead of questioning why GIT_DIR was set, that commit instead made sequencer change GIT_DIR to be an absolute path and explicitly export it via argv_array_pushf(&child_env, "GIT_DIR=%s", absolute_path(get_git_dir())); run_command_v_opt_cd_env(..., child_env.argv) * In commit ab5e67d751 ("sequencer: pass absolute GIT_WORK_TREE to exec commands", 2018-07-14), it was noted that when GIT_DIR is set but GIT_WORK_TREE is not, that we do not discover GIT_WORK_TREE but just assume it is '.'. That is incorrect if trying to run commands from a subdirectory. However, rather than question why GIT_DIR was set, that commit instead also added GIT_WORK_TREE to the list of things to export. Each of the above problems would have been fixed automatically when git-rebase became a full builtin, had it not been for the fact that sequencer.c started exporting GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE in the interim. Stop exporting them now.
