Description

**Describe the problem/challenge you have**

Vendir is rejecting to fetch repos with dangling symlinks

**Describe the solution you'd like**

For large git repo fetches where only some paths need to be included, it would be useful to be able to use the underlying vendir includePaths and excludePaths to selectively include/exclude some path

**Anything else you would like to add:**

The workaround of using subpath requires to
* replace any absolute link from the repo root into related path
* move/remove any reference to files outside of the single subpath
