fetch-pack: do not remove .git/shallow file when --depth is not specifiednd/fetch-pack-shallow-fix

fetch_pack() can remove .git/shallow file when a shallow repository
becomes a full one again. This behavior is triggered incorrectly when
tags are also fetched because fetch_pack() will be called twice. At
the first fetch_pack() call:

 - shallow_lock is set up
 - alternate_shallow_file points to shallow_lock.filename, which is
   "shallow.lock"
 - commit_lock_file is called, which sets shallow_lock.filename to "".
   alternate_shallow_file also becomes "" because it points to the
   same memory.

At the second call, setup_alternate_shallow() is not called and
alternate_shallow_file remains "". It's mistaken as unshallow case and
.git/shallow is removed. The end result is a broken repository.

Fix this by always initializing alternate_shallow_file when
fetch_pack() is called. As an extra measure, check if args->depth > 0
before commit/rollback shallow file.
