git.el: Set process-environment instead of invoking env

According to the similar patch from David Kågedal [1], "this will make
it a little less posix-dependent and more efficient." However, there
are two other areas that need to replaced, namely
git-run-command-region and git-run-hooks. This patch implements the
changes of [1] onto those Emacs Lisp functions.

If unpatched, using the git port "msysgit" on Windows will require
defadvice changes as shown at [2] (also explained at 4msysgit.git
[3]).

I have tested git-run-command-region on msysgit, because this is
always called by git-commit (via git-commit-tree <- git-do-commit <-
git-commit-file). However, I could not test git-run-hooks because it
currently does not work on the Emacs Windows port. The latter reports
the hooks files as a+rw and a-x, despite msysgit and cygwin chmod
setting on the respective files.
