clone: let the user know when check_everything_connected is run

check_everything_connected could take a long time, especially in the
clone case where the whole DAG is traversed. The user deserves to know
what's going on.

fetch-pack: prepare updated shallow file before fetching the pack

index-pack --strict looks up and follows parent commits. If shallow
information is not ready by the time index-pack is run, index-pack may
be led to non-existent objects. Make fetch-pack save shallow file to
disk before invoking index-pack.

git learns new global option --shallow-file to pass on the alternate
shallow file path. Undocumented (and not even support --shallow-file=
syntax) because it's unlikely to be used again elsewhere.

Merge branch 'nd/clone-connectivity-shortcut' (early part) into maint

Cloning with "git clone --depth N" while fetch.fsckobjects (or
transfer.fsckobjects) is set to true did not tell the cut-off points
of the shallow history to the process that validates the objects and
the history received, causing the validation to fail.
