Vincent Ambo 8b851956ad feat(readTree): Add support for path-dependent args filtering
Adds another argument to readTree itself which can be passed when
importing readTree (e.g. in our default.nix) to filter the arguments
passed to a target based on that target's location in the tree.

This is intentionally not yet mentioned in the docs, and also
intentionally implemented in such a way that the API surface of
readTree doesn't change. The reason for this is that I want to figure
out whether these filter functions are actually useful, e.g. within
depot by filtering user-folder passing, and then refactor the readTree
API to find a public way of exposing this as part of the readTree
function itself (and not its import).

Relates to b/143.
