load_subtree(): only consider blobs to be potential notes

The old code converted any entry whose path constituted a full SHA-1
as a leaf node, without regard for the type of the entry. But only
blobs can be notes. So treat entries whose paths *look like* notes
paths but that are not blobs as non-notes.
