git-sh-setup.sh: make GIT_DIR absolute

Quite a few of the scripts are rather careless about using GIT_DIR while changing directories. Some try their hands (with different likelihood of success) in making GIT_DIR absolute. This patch lets git-sh-setup.sh cater for absolute directories (in a way that should work reliably also with non-Unix path names) and removes the respective kludges in git-filter-branch.sh and git-instaweb.sh.
