Use the git repo of
--x-builtin-ports-root
and--x-builtin-registry-versions-dir
when talking about port commit shas and version tree shas, respectively.I believe this is necessary to make the instructions in https://learn.microsoft.com/vcpkg/produce/publish-to-a-git-registry#4---update-the-versions-database actually work.
This also reduces the number of things that assume VCPKG_ROOT is a git repo. (Since it is not when we are shipped in VS or acquired with the one liner)
