ignore: treat paths with trailing "/" as directories

The function `git_ignore_path_is_ignored` is there to test the
ignore status of paths that need not necessarily exist inside of
a repository. This has the implication that for a given path, we
cannot always decide whether it references a directory or a file,
and we need to distinguish those cases because ignore rules may
treat those differently. E.g. given the following gitignore file:

    *
    !/**/

we'd only want to unignore directories, while keeping files
ignored. But still, calling `git_ignore_path_is_ignored("dir/")`
will say that this directory is ignored because it treats "dir/"
as a file path.

As said, the `is_ignored` function cannot always decide whether
the given path is a file or directory, and thus it may produce
wrong results in some cases. While this is unfixable in the
general case, we can do better when we are being passed a path
name with a trailing path separator (e.g. "dir/") and always
treat them as directories.
