Since fast-export operates by listing file changes since the (first) parent
commit, when using --import-marks and path limiting and using a wider list
of paths than in previous runs, files from the new path(s) will silently be
omitted from the result unless or until a commit which explicitly changes
those files. The resulting repository in such cases is broken and makes no
sense.
This commit fixes this by having fast-export work with complete trees
instead of incremental changes (when both --import-marks and path limiting
are used). It works by issuing a 'deleteall' directive with each commit and
then listing the full set of files that make up that commit, rather than
just showing the list of files that have changed since the (first) parent
commit.

The fast-import stream format requires incremental changes which take place
immediately, meaning that for D->F conversions all files below the relevant
directory must be deleted before the resulting file of the same name is
created. Reversing the order can result in fast-import silently deleting
the file right after creating it, resulting in the file missing from the
resulting repository.
We correct this by first sorting the diff_queue_struct in depth-first
order.

Upon failure of any of these tests (or when a test that is marked as
expecting a failure is fixed), we will end up running later tests in
random places.
