fix a bug that prevented git-annex init from working in a submodule

Browse source 
This is probably a reversion, but not sure what caused it. By the time
Annex.Init runs fixupUnusualReposAfterInit, another git-annex process has
at least sometimes already done the necessary fixups. (Eg, one run
indirectly by a git command.) But since the Repo is cached, it doesn't
realize and does them again. So, avoid crashing when git config --unset
fails.

### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
Besides this problem, I am super happy with git-annex and use it at work and at home daily :-)

Thanks Mike, that confirms it's failing to unset the config that's not set.
The .git symlink is what git-annex is supposed to set up, so it should not
need to do anything else and the question is, why does it still think it
needs to change something?
I was able to reproduce the warning, just run `git submodule add foo
/path/to/annexrepo` and then in foo, `git-annex init` and then it
happens part-way through. Due to two different git-annex processes both
trying to do the same conversion, with the second one failing.
I've fixed that.
My fix will also fix your problem. But, I don't actually
understand how to reproduce your problem. I was only able to make it happen
when running `git-annex init` (or letting it auto-init),
not running other git-annex commands in a repo it's already initialized.
Maybe you have `GIT_DIR` set to "../../../.git/modules/..."?
