Improve performance of tree rendering in repositories with lots of items

Rails is slow to generate paths dynamically especially when called
hundreds/thousands of times. Also, rendering many partials hundreds
of times can be slower. This change reduces the number of partials
rendered and introduces two fast path methods to speed up path
generation.
