clone: prevent --reference to a shallow repository

If we borrow objects from another repository, we should also pay
attention to their $GIT_DIR/shallow (and even info/grafts). But
current alternates code does not.

Reject alternate repos that are shallow because we do not do it
right. In future the alternate code may be updated to check
$GIT_DIR/shallow properly so that this restriction could be lifted.
