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.
