Currently, git-credential-netrc does not work outside of a git
repository. It fails with the following error:
fatal: Not a git repository: . at /usr/share/perl5/Git.pm line 214.
There is no real reason why need to be within a repository, though.
Credential helpers should be able to work just fine outside the
repository as well.
Call the non-self version of config() so that git-credential-netrc no
longer needs to be run within a repository.

The shebang path for the Perl interpreter in git-credential-netrc was
hardcoded. However, some users may have it located at a different
location and thus, would have had to manually edit the script.
Add a .perl prefix to the script to denote it as a template and ignore
the generated version. Augment the Makefile so that it generates
git-credential-netrc from git-credential-netrc.perl, just like other
Perl scripts.
The Makefile recipes were shamelessly stolen from
contrib/mw-to-git/Makefile.
