prefix_path: show gitdir if worktree unavailable
If there is no worktree at present, we can still hint the user about Git's current directory by showing them the absolute path to the Git directory. Even though the Git directory doesn't make it as easy to locate the worktree in question, it can still help a user figure out what's going on while developing a script. This fixes a segmentation fault introduced in e0020b2f ("prefix_path: show gitdir when arg is outside repo", 2020-02-14).
