export: don't prefetch *all* files in manifest

`hg export` only shows changed files, not all files, but we still
prefetched all files in cmdutil.export(). The same is true for the
other commands calling cmdutil.exportfile(). That meant that `hg
export` with remotefilelog (or lfs, I assume) could take much longer
than expected because it would download all the files in the repo.

for software developers.

 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup

Running without installing::

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version
