pkg-download: Make a shallow clone for git downloads
When downloading from git, we clone the whole repository and then only
use the latest commit. That's a lot of redundant stuff. So instead,
make a shallow clone. Unfortunately that's only possible when
downloading a branch or tag, so fall back to the old method if git gives
an error.
This speeds up the cloning of a linux git from more than 2 hours to
20 minutes on a 200KB/s link).
