Under some circumstances (bogus GIT_DIR value or the discovered gitdir is '.git') 'setup_git_directory()' won't initialize key repository state. This leads to inconsistent state after running the setup code. To account for this inconsistent state, lazy initialization is done once a caller asks for the repository's gitdir or some other piece of repository state. This is confusing and can be error prone.
Instead let's tighten the expected outcome of 'setup_git_directory()' and ensure that it initializes repository state in all cases that would have been handled by lazy initialization. This also lets us drop the requirement to have 'have_git_dir()' check if the environment variable GIT_DIR was set as that will be handled by the end of the setup code.
