merge-tree: fix d/f conflicts
The previous commit documented two known breakages revolving around
a case where one side flips a tree into a blob (or vice versa),
where the original code simply gets confused and feeds a mixture of
trees and blobs into either the recursive merge-tree (and recursing
into the blob will fail) or three-way merge (and merging tree contents
together with blobs will fail).
Fix it by feeding trees (and only trees) into the recursive
merge-tree machinery and blobs (and only blobs) into the three-way
content level merge machinery separately; when this happens, the
entire merge has to be marked as conflicting at the structure level.
