git-gui: Fixes chooser not accepting gitfiles
Support the case where .git is a platform independent symbolic link and not a directory. This occurs when --separate-git-dir is used when creating the local repository to store the .git directory elsewhere. git-gui does not support such repositories when using the repository chooser as the test to determine that the chosen directory is a git repository fails for such repositories. This commit enables _is_git to read the real location from the symbolic link file.
