The short and sweet PREFIX can be confused when used in many places.

Rename both usages to better describe their purpose.

Noticed when compiling Git for Windows using MSVC/Visual Studio which
reports the conflict beteeen the command line definition and the
definition in sideband.c

You should describe the circumstances better under which you notice a conflict, because there is no conflict when Git is built with the Makefile and 'make':

diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
index 33b0f76..bcdd3ec 100644
--- a/Makefile
+++ b/Makefile
@@ -1973,7 +1973,7 @@ exec_cmd.sp exec_cmd.s exec_cmd.o: GIT-PREFIX
  exec_cmd.sp exec_cmd.s exec_cmd.o: EXTRA_CPPFLAGS = \
        '-DGIT_EXEC_PATH="$(gitexecdir_SQ)"' \
        '-DBINDIR="$(bindir_relative_SQ)"' \
-       '-DPREFIX="$(prefix_SQ)"'
+       '-DEXEC_PREFIX="$(prefix_SQ)"'

Notice that PREFIX is set only for a small subset of .c files. sideband.c is not among them.
