Support git as an SCM alternative in the build

        Description

        The file $JDK/release in the build output include an SCM hash of the soures used in the build, currently a Mercurial hash.

        As Project Skara is investigating git as an SCM for the JDK and to support existing git mirrors, it would be helpful if the build could recognize that the sources were being stored in a git repo and pass through the relevant git hash if present.
