This avoids fetching blobs and tree references for branches we are not
going to worry about. Also skip tag references which are similarly not
useful and keep the default --prune. This keeps the .git data to
around 100M rather than the ~400M even a shallow clone takes.

So we can check the savings we also run a quick du while setting up
the build.

We also have to have special settings of GIT_FETCH_EXTRA_FLAGS for the
Windows build (git too old?) and the migration legacy test where we
build an older QEMU alongside the main one.
