sync: Fix git sync with local git remotes even when they don't have an annex.uuid set.

Catch an exception when ensureInitialized is run in a non-initted
repository. In this case, just read the git config, so that the Git.Repo
object is not LocalUnknown, which is what is used to represent remotes
on eg, drives that are not connected.

The assistant already got this right, and like with the assistant, this
causes an implicit git-annex init of the local remote on the second sync,
once the git-annex branch has been pushed to it.
See this comment for more analysis:
