git-init: accept --bare option
It is unfortunate that "git init --bare" does not work and the only reason why "init" did not learn its own "--bare" option is because "git --bare init" already does the job (and as an option to the git 'potty', it is more generic solution). This teaches "git init" its own "--bare" option, so that both "git --bare init" and "git init --bare" works mostly the same way.
