Subject: Micro-optimize prepare_alt_odb

Calling getenv() is not that expensive, but its also not free,
and its certainly not cheaper than testing to see if alt_odb_tail
is not null.

Because we are calling prepare_alt_odb() from within find_sha1_file
every time we cannot find an object file locally we want to skip out
of prepare_alt_odb() as early as possible once we have initialized
our alternate list.
