Potential bug when handling relative paths.

Reproduction steps

Compile the following code (gcc example.c -lgit2), and run it against an object directory.
If we supply an absolute path, the example works fine.
./a.out /home/elliott/repo
If a relative path is provided, the example failed. The git_odb_write_multi_pack_index complains path issues.
./a.out [repo]

A sample repo can be downloaded here. repo.zip

// This simple example just opens a repo odb and writes out a multi-index pack.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <git2.h>



struct Context {
	git_odb *db;
	git_odb_backend *backend;
	git_indexer *idxer;
};

int git_odb_foreach_cb_1(const git_oid *id, void *payload) {
	printf("%s\n", git_oid_tostr_s(id));
	return 0;
}

int main(int argc, char **argv) {

	struct Context c;

	if (argc != 2) {
		fprintf(stderr, "Usage: bug_example object_dir\n");
		return -1;
	}

	const char* obj_dir = argv[1];

	git_libgit2_init();

	if (git_odb_new(&c.db)) {
		fprintf(stderr, "Unable to open db\n");
		return -1;
	}

	if (git_odb_backend_pack(&c.backend, obj_dir)) {
		fprintf(stderr, "Unable to open backend\n");
		return -1;
	}

	if (git_odb_add_backend(c.db, c.backend, 1)) {
		fprintf(stderr, "Unable to add backend\n");
		return -1;
	}

	if (git_odb_foreach(c.db, git_odb_foreach_cb_1, &c)) {
		fprintf(stderr, "Unable to walk repo\n");
		return -1;
	}


	if (git_odb_write_multi_pack_index(c.db)) {
		fprintf(stderr, "Could not open repository: %s\n", git_error_last()->message);
		return -1;
	}

	return 0;
	
}

Expected behavior

Works on relative path and absolute path.

Actual behavior

If we supply an absolute path, the example works fine.
If a relative path is provided, the example failed. The git_odb_write_multi_pack_index complains path issues.

Version of libgit2 (release number or SHA1)

Tested on 1.5 and 1.4

Operating system(s) tested

Ubuntu 22.04

Start by compiling the supplied C example against libgit2 1.5 or 1.4 and run it with the linked sample repository, comparing absolute and relative object-directory paths. Trace the git_odb_backend_pack and git_odb_write_multi_pack_index calls to identify where the relative path fails; done means both invocation forms work without the path error.
