The existing implementation of 'git backfill' only includes downloading
missing blobs reachable from HEAD. Advanced uses may desire more general
commit limiting options, such as '--all' for all references, specifying a
commit range via negative references, or specifying a recency of use such as
with '--since=<date>'.
All of these options are available if we use setup_revisions() to parse the
unknown arguments with the revision machinery. This opens up a large number
of possibilities, only a small set of which are tested here.
For documentation, we avoid duplicating the option documentation and instead
link to the documentation of 'git rev-list'.
Note that these arguments currently allow specifying a pathspec, which
modifies the commit history checks but does not limit the paths used in the
backfill logic. This will be updated in a future change.

For better searchability, this commit adds a check to ensure that parameters
expressed in the form of `--[no-]parameter` are not used in the
documentation. In the place of such parameters, the documentation should
list two separate parameters: `--parameter` and `--no-parameter`.

Lazy-loading missing files in a blobless clone on demand is costly
as it tends to be one-blob-at-a-time. "git backfill" is introduced
to help bulk-download necessary files beforehand.
* ds/backfill:
backfill: assume --sparse when sparse-checkout is enabled
backfill: add --sparse option
backfill: add --min-batch-size=<n> option
backfill: basic functionality and tests
backfill: add builtin boilerplate
