[OE-core][dunfell 12/14] base: Avoid circular references to our own scripts

[Steve Sakoman <steve@sakoman.com>]

From: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

We'd like to intercept git calls but we don't want circular references
and HOSTTOOLS currently sets them up. Tweak to avoid them.

(cherry picked from commit 52c37e133fa55846aca2248ffcf3a10648dbb8d7)
