Docs: Fixed invalid example paths in gitian-building.md #8009

The example local paths for "Building fully offline" were missing a forward slash prior to the ".git". This caused an error when trying to run gbuild, like this:
```
fatal: '/home/user/bitcoin.git' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
```
This PR fixes that.

I don't think the /.git is necessary at all. This is probably a case of the person writing this having the directories named like <something>.git. Do agree with removing those though, as that prefix is not there by default.

@laanwj Indeed, you are correct; the /.git is optional. Leaving out the / while having the .git present does not work, though (which is what the current docs say). Would you prefer that I modify this PR to remove the /.git?

Yes, I'd say just leave

BTCPATH=/some/root/path/bitcoin
SIGPATH=/some/root/path/bitcoin-detached-sigs

Fixed invalid example paths in gitian-building.md

The example local paths for "Building fully offline" have an extraneous ".git".  This caused an error when trying to run gbuild, like this

fatal: '/home/user/bitcoin.git' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

This commit fixes that.
