This adds support for depth >0 in the tree:<depth> filter. Before this patch, only <depth>=0 is supported, which means all trees and blobs are filtered.
The purpose of this is to allow fetching of entire directories in a partial clone use case. If I do a partial clone of a repo with no objects and then want to do something like "make" it will be quite slow of we initiate a separate fetch for every file needed. Alternatively, fetching directories at a time - as soon as any file in a directory is accessed - is a reasonable approach.
