dir: skip excluded directory with nested repo on prefix match

95c11ecc73 (Fix error-prone fill_directory() API; make it only return
matches, 2020-04-01) optimized away pathspec matching too eagerly and
cada7308ad (dir: check pathspecs before returning `path_excluded`,
2020-07-20) fixed that for files and symlinks.

A corner case remained unaddressed: Ignored directories that contain a
nested repository.  Make sure to run match_pathspec_with_flags() for it
if necessary.

Add a status test to check whether the pathspec is applied correctly as
well as a checkout test to exercise the changed code without a pathspec.
