git: upstream no longer ships .el files for emacs #77071

Motivation for this change

git no longer ships emacs files, so there is no point having them. In fact, it makes things worse as running this will get emacs to very loudly complain due to the shipped .el artifacts all raising errors on eval.

(require 'git)

I haven't run nix-review as this change causes significant rebuilding.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

I cannot see how the build failures on darwin and aarch64-linux could in any way be related to this change, so I am going ahead and merging this.
