#64044: git-lfs: allow using system git

--------------------------+----------------------
For my own uses, the `git` included with Xcode 12.4 command line tools has
been sufficient. I encountered a repository that requires `git-lfs`. But
MacPorts’ git-lfs currently depends on MacPorts’ git, which is not
distributable. I think it would be desirable to not have to build git
locally just to use MacPorts’ git-lfs, and it appears to work fine with
system git (e.g. no broken links to MacPorts git). Can the git-lfs port
specify the git dependency using `bin:git:git`, at least on systems with
sufficiently recent git?
