The transport-helper mechanism requires us to gracefully handle the case
where a git command is not available for some reason.
This patch introduces a simple function for querying the availability of a
git command, without attempting to execute said command.
The new function is very similar to the static is_git_command() function in
builtin-help.c, except that this function also accepts a matching alias.
