Make git log's `--use-mailmap` argument works if the GIT_DIR & GIT_WORK_TREE
env vars are set and git is run from outside of work tree. Without the
NEED_WORK_TREE set on the log subcommand, .mailmap is silently not found.

Notes:
I'm not entirely sure if this is the best way to fix it, as my git
internals knowledge is pretty weak. But this /seems/ reasonable to me, and
passes all of the current test cases. If there's a more appropriate way to
make `--use-mailmap` work properly when `git log` is run outside of the
tree, I'd be excited about the opportunity to learn. :)
