test: previous releases: speed up fetching sources with shallow clone
For the sake of building previous releases, fetching the whole history
of the repository for each version seems to be overkill as it takes much
more time, bandwidth and disk space than necessary. Create a shallow
clone instead with history truncated to the one commit of the version
tag, which is directly checked out in the same command. This has the
nice side-effect that we can remove the extra `git checkout` step after
as it's not needed anymore.
Note that it might look confusing to pass a _tag_ to a parameter named
`--branch`, but the git-clone manpage explicitly states that this is
supported.
