gc: remove gc.pid file at end of execution
This file isn't really harmful, but isn't useful either, and can create minor annoyance for the user: * It's confusing, as the presence of a *.pid file often implies that a process is currently running. A user running "ls .git/" and finding this file may incorrectly guess that a "git gc" is currently running. * Leaving this file means that a "git gc" in an already gc-ed repo is no-longer a no-op. A user running "git gc" in a set of repositories, and then synchronizing this set (e.g. rsync -av, unison, ...) will see all the gc.pid files as changed, which creates useless noise. This patch unlinks the file after the garbage collection is done, so that gc.pid is actually present only during execution. Future versions of Git may want to use the information left in the gc.pid file (e.g. for policies like "don't attempt to run a gc if one has already been ran less than X hours ago"). If so, this patch can safely be reverted. For now, let's not bother the users.
