Allow GIT_REPO_URL to be overridden for self managed patch releases

Reuben Pereira requested to merge rp/add-git-repo-url into master

What does this MR do?

This addition allows us to configure the omnibus package built for self-managed to change which repo we leverage for the Git software if ever needed. This allows us to build packages by pulling the git source from https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security/git.git if required, instead of https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/git.git.

The variables defined here will only be used for auto-deploy pipelines or self-managed patch releases, so we can add the variables as project variables in https://dev.gitlab.org/gitlab/omnibus-gitlab without affecting other Omnibus pipelines.

This is similar to !6509 (merged).
