Add prepare-workspace-git role
Currently the incremental push of the git repos to the nodes is split
into a part in project-config and a part in zuul-jobs and only works
within the OpenStack context. The prepare-workspace-git role is an
attempt to make this generically available in zuul-jobs.

It first checks for each needed project if it's cached. If yes it's
cloned to the destination, if not it's just initialized as an empty
git repo. After that we can generically use git operations to sync the
correct state of the repos to the destination.

Mirror the local git repos to remote nodes
This role uses git operations (unlike :zuul:role:`prepare-workspace`
which uses rsync) to mirror the locally prepared git repos to the remote
nodes while taking advantage of cached repos on the node if they exist.
This role works generically regardless of the existence of a cached
repo on the node.
The cached repos need to be placed using the canonical name under the
`cached_repos_root` directory.
**Role Variables**
.. zuul:rolevar:: cached_repos_root
:default: /opt/git
The root of the cached repos.
