I don't see any benefits on libgit implementation.
The only method supported by libgit backend is `magit-bare-repo-p`[1],
magit use git executable to do 99.9% works.

The libgit backend should be a separated package. There's
https://github.com/magit/magit/blob/master/lisp/magit-libgit-pkg.el for
it. Its quaility is poor because it's currently in POC status and the
development status has been put on hold indefinitely.[2]
