gitignore: lazily find dtype
When we process "foo/" entries in gitignore files on a system
that does not have d_type member in "struct dirent", the earlier
implementation ran lstat(2) separately when matching with
entries that came from the command line, in-tree .gitignore
files, and $GIT_DIR/info/excludes file.
This optimizes it by delaying the lstat(2) call until it becomes
absolutely necessary.
The initial idea for this change was by Jeff King, but I
optimized it further to pass pointers to around.
