unsafe repositories refresh button missing

[gregvanl]

Testing #167413

Following the test plan item for a single repository, if you add the folder to safe.directory via

git config --global --add safe.directory C:/Users/gregvanl/deleteMe/scenario1/vscode

There isn't a way to refresh the SCM view as there is no refresh button.

Of course, the workaround is just to reload the window, so maybe a nit

You can also get into an error state after removing the safe.directory value via

git config --global --unset-all safe.directory

The SCM refresh doesn't succeed and shows a Git error dialog:

@gregvanl, thanks for the feedback. Ideally users will not be changing the configuration directly but I do agree that we should be handling these edge case more gracefully. I will tackle these paper cuts next milestone.
