Several tools, including the "git" recipe module, hard-code a
checkout-relative "git.bat" path. Git is a feature that is provided by
the system, both to tooling and recipes:
1) For users, "depot_tools" must be on PATH, and during setup it will
have installed "git.bat", ensuring that Git tooling is available in
PATH.
2) For bots, the system is responsible for providing "git.bat" on PATH.
This is typically done at "/b/depot_tools/git.bat", which is sync'd
through the "update_scripts" step.
By formally treating Git as a system resource, we absolve Windows bots
and users from manually installing a depot_tools-local Git, bringing
them in line with other platforms.

This will help remove confusion when depot_tools' recipes.py
ends up in PATH.
