Explicitly include .git in Google Cloud Builds

To include VCS data in the controller binary, our image build process requires .git to be present in the working directory. Google Cloud Build, the system used by the Kubernetes project to build container images, ignores .git by default. Explicitly include .git in the GCB environment through a .gcloudignore file.
