rerere: exit silently on "forget" when rerere is disabledjk/rerere-forget-check-enabled

If you run "git rerere forget foo" in a repository that does
not have rerere enabled, git hits an internal error:

  $ git init -q
  $ git rerere forget foo
  fatal: BUG: attempt to commit unlocked object

The problem is that setup_rerere() will not actually take
the lock if the rerere system is disabled. We should notice
this and return early. We can return with a success code
here, because we know there is nothing to forget.
