pathspec: allow querying for attributes
The pathspec mechanism is extended via the new
":(attr:eol=input)pattern/to/match" syntax to filter paths so that it
requires paths to not just match the given pattern but also have the
specified attrs attached for them to be chosen.
Based on a patch by Stefan Beller <sbeller@google.com>
