This commit is part of the series that introduces the new subcommand
git-repo-info.
The flag `--is-shallow-repository` from git-rev-parse is used for
retrieving whether the repository is shallow. This way, it is used for
querying repository metadata, fitting in the purpose of git-repo-info.
Then, add a new field `layout.shallow` to the git-repo-info subcommand
containing that information.
