The external_target member will not be given by path / dirent.
We will get it by parsing the externals description.
Suppose that path1 in repo1 has svn:externals set to path2 in repo2.
When we list path1 with externals included,
1. First, list path1.
2. Then, process all the externals defined under path1. Parse through
the individual external description and populate external_target.
For example,
external description under path1:
external_desc = exdir http://<url-of-path2-in-repo2>
external_target = exdir
external_parent_url = http://<url-of-path1-in-repo1>
url of external = http://<url-of-path2-in-repo2>
3. List the entries by reaching 'url of external'.

It will be very easy to understand the output in XML listing mode.

Externals defined outside the subtree which is being listed don't get
processed. If I do 'svn list --include-externals' for a particular path
or url, I would expect all the externals defined only *under* the path
or url to be listed.
