fix misuse of prefix_path()

When DEFAULT_GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR is specified as a relative path, init-db made it relative to exec_path using prefix_path(), which is wrong. prefix_path() is about a file inside the work tree. There was a similar misuse in config.c that takes relative ETC_GITCONFIG path. A convenience function prefix_filename() can concatenate two paths to form a path that points at somewhere outside the work tree. Use it in these codepaths instead.
