"phable list" on a project also returns the tasks that are in its milestones and subprojects. The result set can be very large.

Phabricator does not seem to provide a way to query only for exact project match (excluding subprojects), so we find all subprojects and exclude them. This is a bit of a bulldozer approach but I can't find a nicer way to do it.

I haven't added a flag to toggle this additional filtering, as from a user point of view, it seems unlikely that we would ever want to list tasks from subprojects (and that list is likely to be too large anyway - hitting the 100 task per page limit, and we don't do pagination). Subprojects would also break when using column filtering (columns are project / board specific).

Note that the current implementation adds a phabricator call for each list. Alternative implementation could be to either add a cli flag to disable this behaviour (not my preferred option, it seems unlikely to actually be needed by the user), or to exclude the filtering when using --milestone and assume that we don't have sub-milestones, or sub-subprojects. I'm also not super keen on this alternative as it makes strong assumptions about how we use phab (multiple levels of projects / milestones are allowed in phab, it just happens that we don't use them at the moment for our team).

Happy for suggestions!

Nicely done, thanks!
