When providing an object filter, it is currently impossible to also
filter provided items. E.g. when executing `git rev-list HEAD` , the
commit this reference points to will be treated as user-provided and is
thus excluded from the filtering mechanism. This makes it harder than
necessary to properly use the new `--filter=object:type` filter given
that even if the user wants to only see blobs, he'll still see commits
of provided references.

Improve this by introducing a new `--filter-provided` option to the

s/--filter-provided/--filter-provided-revisions/

Also in some tests - I presume the option should be spelled out in full.

Right. I did fix these in the resend because I forgot to stage changes,
but still had it in the commit message.

Fixed now, thanks!
