path-walk: support wildcard pathspecs for blob filtering

Previously, walk_objects_by_path() silently ignored pathspecs containing
wildcards or magic by clearing them. This caused all blobs to be
downloaded regardless of the given pathspec. Wildcard pathspecs like
"d/file.*.txt" are useful for narrowing which blobs to process (e.g.,
during 'git backfill').

Support wildcard pathspecs by making two changes:

 1. Add an 'exact_pathspecs' flag to path_walk_context. When the
    pathspec has no wildcards or magic, set this flag and use the
    existing fast-path prefix matching in add_tree_entries(). When
    wildcards are present, skip that block since prefix matching
    cannot handle glob patterns.

 2. Add a match_pathspec() check in walk_path() to filter out blobs
    whose full path does not match the pathspec. This provides the
    actual blob-level filtering for wildcard pathspecs.
