t0008: avoid absolute path

The colon is used by check-ignore to separate paths from other output
values. If we use an absolute path, however, on Windows it will be
converted into a Windows path that very much contains a colon.

It is actually not at all necessary to make the path of the global
excludes absolute, so let's just not even do that.

Based on suggestions by Karsten Blees and Junio Hamano.
