log a more informative error when wrap-git subprojects cannot be downloaded
"ERROR: Git program not found" is both highly true, and somewhat inscrutable. Sure, looking at the line number you can basically figure out that subproject('something') must somehow need git to operate, but that may not be immediately obvious. Make mention of the fact that it is needed to "download foo.wrap". Fixes #7764
