For example fetching golang.org/x/oauth2 should not copy golang.org/x/oauth2/google, and so google.golang.org/cloud/compute/metadata should not be fetched.

However this is a breaking change for restore as subpackages people are relying on might not be explicitly set in the manifest. So needs a "NoSubpackages" default on option. Sigh restore.

The transition should be handled by the purge command (#16)

@davecheney I am about to change this behavior, so I thought I would ask you what was the original reason for the design (vendoring all the subpackages). Thanks :)
