Support older (pre-2.49.0) versions of Git.

Avoid using the new "git clone --revision" option, which first
appeared in Git 2.49.0, released in March 2025.

* makeicecat (git_thin_clone_revision): New shell function.
(fetch_l10n): Use 'git_thin_clone_revision' to fetch the firefox-l10n
repository.  Use "git clone --branch" to fetch the compare-locales
repository.
