git: Allow local repos to use HEAD

Introduce a new 'usehead' url parameter for git repositories. Specifying
usehead=1 causes bitbake to use whatever commit the repository HEAD is
pointing to. Usage of usehead=1 is only allowed for local git
repositories, i.e. it must always be accompanied with protocol=file url
parameter.
