... which is logical but slightly unexpected.  Also I noticed we
lost '-d' but still accept it as an option, so...

[PATCH]: ls-tree: resurrect '-d' to mean 'show trees only'

With this:

	git-ls-tree -d HEAD -- drivers/net/

shows only immediate subtrees of drivers/net.

	git-ls-tree -d -t HEAD -- drivers/net/

shows drivers, drivers/net and immediate subtrees of
drivers/net.

	git-ls-tree -d -r HEAD -- drivers/net/

shows drivers, drivers/net and all subtrees of drivers/net (but
not blobs).

 * The practical value of this patch is dubious, and we might
   want to simply remove '-d' from the options.  But the output
   from this looks kind-of nice.  Thoughts?
