Check for remote url instead of .git existence#2102

Current implementation of .git checking have some issues: - If a kernel source being cloned using git-repo tool, especially newer version, it will clone .git in .repo inside of the submodule source. - Newer kernel source changed how $(src) & $(srctree) output. In the case of kernel 6.11 as I tested $(src) show the relative path of the symlink in drivers/ instead of KernelSU main directory. Which makes checking for ../.git existence comletely useless. One idea I would like to propose is to check for the remote URL in $(src). If the remote is correct then we can assume this is KSU repo and then count the version (also unshallow the repo). Here's what I did: - Check if kernel is 6.9+ and then change $(src) accordingly. - Print $(src) remote in verbose and check for the correct URL (both ssh & https). - If correct, check if the repo is shallow by using git rev-parse --is-shallow-repository. Unshallow if it's return true. - Calculate version as usual. The only drawback I can see so far is that forks will have to edit the url in the Makefile, which I don't think it's much of an issue.
