die_if_using_banned_filter() shows two error messages: a "fancy" one
is sent to the client in the ERR packet, including which particular
filter is not supported/allowed, and a simple
die(_("git upload-pack: banned object filter requested"));
If this die() were to show the same fancy error message as in the ERR
packet, then it would always make it to 'git clone's stderr in the
tests, so the tests could reliably check that 'git upload-pack' died
for the expected reason.
