Hermit needs git to clone the hermit-packages registry from GitHub when installing MCP extensions. The Flatpak sandbox does not expose git by default, so copy the git binary and git-remote-https helper from the SDK into /app/bin during the Flatpak build. Fixes aaif-goose#10497

LGTM. Small, correct fix — hermit needs git to clone its package registry and the Flatpak sandbox doesn't expose it, so bundling git + git-remote-https from the SDK makes sense. Would be good to get a confirmation from a Linux/Flatpak user, but the change is trivial and low-risk.
The copied git binary resolves helper paths from its compiled prefix (/usr/libexec/git-core), which does not exist in the Flatpak Platform runtime. Set GIT_EXEC_PATH to point at the helpers bundled under /app/libexec/git-core so git-remote-https is found at runtime.
