This PR is based on #4504.
Parts of Dune needs to find out what vcs a given source directory is controlled by. When there is no vcs at the root of the workspace and we need the vcs of the root, we look up the file system.
At the moment, this lookup is shared with the root discovery code. Moving it to
Source_tree
makesSource_tree
a bit more self-contained and removes the need for theSource_tree.init
initialisation function. It also means that we might list directories above the root twice:This is a bit sad, however this case is already pretty rare and will become even more rare after #4459.
