* jh/object-filtering (2017-11-22) 6 commits
   (merged to 'next' on 2017-11-27 at e5008c3b28)
  + pack-objects: add list-objects filtering
  + rev-list: add list-objects filtering support
  + list-objects: filter objects in traverse_commit_list
  + oidset: add iterator methods to oidset
  + oidmap: add oidmap iterator methods
  + dir: allow exclusions from blob in addition to file
  (this branch is used by jh/fsck-promisors and jh/partial-clone.)

  In preparation for implementing narrow/partial clone, the object
  walking machinery has been taught a way to tell it to "filter" some
  objects from enumeration.

  Will merge to 'master'.

Could we wait on this.  I'd like to send up a V6 that
addresses the assert() questions raised.  And Jonathan
Nieder had a few suggestions that I want to address.

Thanks for stopping me.

As with any topic that is already in 'next', please send in
necessary updates as patches that apply on top of the existing
patches (in other words, we no longer "reroll"; rather, we now go
"incremental").
